DNS problem

[cloudmaster <cloudmaster@cloudmaster.ml.org>]

While I'm trying to get my bind up and running for whenever cloudmaster.com
goes through (woo-hoo!), I'm having a minor problem that I'm too tired to
look up in a book.  If there could be an answer waiting for me when I
awake, I'd be thrilled... :)

Anyway, when I restart bind, I get these messages dumped into the logs:

Feb 10 01:22:25 cloud120 named[9948]: reloading nameserver 
Feb 10 01:22:25 cloud120 named[9948]: cloudmaster.com has CNAME and other
data (invalid) 
Feb 10 01:22:25 cloud120 named[9948]: cloudmaster.com has CNAME and other

Feb 10 01:22:25 cloud120 named[9948]: *.cloudmaster.com has CNAME and other
data (invalid) 
Feb 10 01:22:25 cloud120 named[9948]: primary zone "cloudmaster.com" loaded

Feb 10 01:22:25 cloud120 named[9948]: Ready to answer queries. 
Feb 10 01:22:25 cloud120 named[9948]: sysquery: findns error (NXDOMAIN) on
187.253.204.in-addr.arpa?
Feb 10 01:22:25 cloud120 named[9948]:
qserial_query(187.253.204.in-addr.arpa): sysquery FAILED

It loads alright and looks up cloudmaster.com and everything else (such as
www.cloudmaster.com and poop.cloudmaster.com), but those errors bug me. 
The "extra info" error I've gotten rid of before, but I don't remember
how.  I imagine the last 2 lines are a result of my trying to put reverse
lookups here for my IP, and just listing myself as a secondsry server for
187.253.204.*.  The relevent lines from the databases and named.boot are:

db
---------------
;
; name server entry (implied @)
;
	IN  NS  cloud120
;
; internal hosts
;
localhost	IN A	127.0.0.1
		IN MX 0	cloud120
;
; firewall / router
;
cloud120	IN A	204.253.187.171		; dialup
;
; mail record and convenience name
;
cloudmaster.com.	IN CNAME	cloud120
*.cloudmaster.com.	IN CNAME	cloud120
			IN MX    0	cloud120
-------------

.boot
-------------
primary         cloudmaster.com         db.cloudmaster.com
primary         0.168.192.in-addr.arpa  db.192.168.0
secondary       187.253.204.in-addr.arpa db.204.253.187
-------------

So, if anyone knows how to fix it, lemme know.  Else, I'll have to read. 
*gasp*

Secondary concerns for el-Dannyo:  I wanna redirect web users that try to
retrieve cloudmaster.ml.org pages to a page that has a link to the
corresponding cloudmaster.com page.  This can be done pretty easily with a
little CGI, right?

I also want any mail coming in to an @*cloudmaster.ml.org address to get an
auto-response generated detailing the move and suggesting a change in
address books.  Can I do this with some kooky sendmail configuration
dealie, or do I jsut have to put a .procmail into everyone's home directory
that does the filtering for me?  Obviously the sendmail solution would be
better.  

Thanks for whatever help you folks give me.

--Danny, who has O'Reily DNS/bind, apache, and sendmail books but asks here
anyway because reading either makes him tired or points out cool new things
for him to play with until 1:30AM...
