Remember, MX's and NS records can't point to CNAMEs.

An MX record should not be a raw IP address either.

You can have more than one record type for a domain/host, so long as none of them as CNAMEs. ie: you can have two A's, or an A and a TXT, but ''never'' an A and a CNAME, or an TXT and a CNAME, or even two CNAMES.
+
+----
+You can define seperate TTL's (in seconds) for records e.g.:
+ shortttl 3600 IN A 127.0.0.1
+
+This will give shortttl.domain.co.nz a TTL of an hour

Try and have names for services (such as "proxy", "www", "smtp" etc) as this means when you move a service onto a different machine you can change the DNS once and everything will be updated.
