DNS Error: dns_rdata_fromtext: extra input text

You may receive error “dns_rdata_fromtext: extra input text” when you run named_checkzone after updating comments.  This usually happens when your comments are more  than two words. The fix is to reduce and limit your comments to just two words. Example: gunnalag@master:/etc/named> /etc/named_checkzone /etc/named/177.99.105.rev /etc/named/TESTSITE.Testdom.com zone 160.77.149.in-addr.arpa/IN: loaded serial 90700 OK dns_rdata_fromtext: /etc/named/TESTSITE.Testdom.com:649: near ‘servers’: extra input text zone TESTSITE.Testdom.com/IN: loading from master file /etc/named/TESTSITE.Testdom.com failed: extra input text gunnalag@master:/etc/named> sudoedit /etc/named/TESTSITE.Testdom.com gunnalag@master:/etc/named> rcsdiff -u TESTSITE.Testdom.com =================================================================== RCS file: RCS/TESTSITE.Testdom.com,v retrieving revision 1.150 diff -u -r1.150346 TESTSITE.Testdom.com — TESTSITE.Testdom.com      2009/07/30 11:33:34     1.150346 +++ TESTSITE.Testdom.com      2009/07/31 07:06:15 @@ -2,7 +2,7 @@ ; […]
