DNS : need a CNAME for www ?

[bcostacurta]

Hello,

I'm currently doing setup of my bind server.
Do I need a CNAME for access to www ?
As present hereafter, are these records correct ?
Thanks for clarification.

mydomain.org. NS Default <comment : myhost.myprovider.com.>
mydomain.org. A Default <comment: my IP here>
mail.costacurta.org. MX Default 10 mail.mydomain.org
www.mydomain.org. CNAME Default mydomain.org.


Bye,
Bruno

Looks good to me. You don't have to use a CNAME, you can point your www name at an IP address, but CNAME's are more convenient - it allows multiple names to point to one IP, as you're only supposed to have one name entry per static IP address.
