Yes, but there weren't any changes being made to that zone file. So
it's not needed. You'd only have to do that if you'd changed records
*in* it. All we were doing is adding domains that used it.
If the file had changed from:
$TTL 86400
@ IN SOA ns.localdomain. hostmaster.mail.localdomain. (
200 ; serial
28800 ; refresh
7200 ; retry
604800 ; expire
86400 ; ttl
)
IN NS ns.localdomain.
To:
$TTL 86400
@ IN SOA ns.localdomain. hostmaster.mail.localdomain. (
200 ; serial
28800 ; refresh
7200 ; retry
604800 ; expire
86400 ; ttl
)
IN NS ns.localdomain.
www IN A 192.168.1.2
Or any other change of details within it.
*THEN* you'd need to increment the serial number. By the way, using
dates in serial numbers is only a recommendation. It's easy enough to
just add "one" to the number. Using a date only makes it easy to see
when the last change was done.
