DNS: Domain name with .com and .net variants

networking

I've recently joined Linode and I'm trying to figure out the DNS setup I need to do.

Let's say I have the domains example.com and example.net. Using Linode's DNS Manager, what would be the correct setup?

example.com and example.net will be the same site by using NamedVirtualHost with the example.net as a ServerAlias.

Thanks for any help and tips!

Add two master zones, one for example.com and one for example.net. Either accept the default records (Yes, insert a few records to get me started, using this IP:), which will create A records for www.example.com/net and mail.example.com/net using your Linode's IP – plus an MX record for each zone -- or manually add the A records yourself.
