Hi all. Bit of a problem/frustration here. I have Bind 9.8.0 installed with the mysql dlz driver from the bind tarball source tree. I have (almost) everything working, using the scheme on the example from the DLZ pages. It is working GREAT!!! The only problem I have is trying to delegate a subzone to our active directory servers. If I setup the subzone in the database as a test it works. However, if I just put the NS records for the subzone, it does not. For the domain, clayton.edu, I have an A record for addns.clayton.edu. I have tried putting the NS record in two ways: One is id, zone, ttl, type, host, data '23', 'clayton.edu', '86400', 'NS', 'ccsunet', 'addns.clayton.edu.' The other is id, zone, ttl, type, host, data '23', 'ccsunet.clayton.edu', '86400', 'NS', '@', 'addns.clayton.edu.' On the first example, dig shows nothing for the ccsunet.clayton.edu subzone, however it shows addns as a nameserver for the clayton.edu domain, so ignoring the host field. For the second example, dig shows addns as the nameserver for the ccsunet.clayton.edu subzone, however trying to lookup a host on that domain fails. query failed (SERVFAIL) for wraith.ccsunet.clayton.edu/IN/A at query.c:5880 Best I can guess it looks like because it finds a record for the domain, it assumes it is authoritative for it. I have also put a stanza in the named.conf for the ccsunet.clayton.edu zone to have it forward to the ip of the addns.clayton.edu, however that is ignored unless I comment out the dlz config lines. So, what is the correct method for adding the records for a subzone that resides elsewhere?
