Re: Bind dlz mysql => subdomain delegation

Allow me to extend the description from Graeme here.

Consider a subdomain to be a complete separate, new domain.
Rather than jamming every domain that's going to serve major things into
one zone, split them out.

So for subdomains that are just pointing to services (ns1.test.com) This
can just be an entry in the test.com zone.

For subdomains that will have further subdomains, and will have mail
separate etc.. Split them out.

Secondsite.test.com would be a complete separate entry in the DLZ
tables.
It would have its own NS entries, an SOA entry
MX Entries if you want to serve mail off it
And you can further add subdomains off that.

I hope that helps :)

Cheers,

Yes.

No.

However, in order to use subdomains you still need an SOA record for the
subdomain. Without that, the DLZ drivers will throw an error like the
one you saw.
