-Add the following line to `internal:/etc/bind/master/savannah.footer`:
+A wildcard subdomain CNAME record was added to
+`internal:/etc/bind/master/savannah.footer`:
 
-    jsmith.frontend0   CNAME   frontend0
+    *.frontend0   CNAME   frontend0
 
-Update `/etc/bind/master/savannah.header` with new serial number,
-and reload with `rndc reload`.
+The DNS setup on `internal` ensures that for every subdomain
+(e.g. `jsmith.frontend0`) the hostname will be included in all four
+possibilities:
 
-Use a hostname alone (e.g. `frontend0`) - do not use fully qualified
-domain name (e.g. `frontend0.savannah.gnu.org`).  The DNS setup
-ensures that a hostname will be included in all four possibilities:
-
     jsmith.frontend0.savannah.gnu.org
     jsmith.frontend0.savannah.nongnu.org
     jsmith.frontend0.sv.gnu.org
