Thanks.. so if I dig further deeper on this it appears that the the query being sent to the subdomain's nameserver is NON-RECURSIVE. So, if the resource-records are already cached on the subdomain's nameserver (assuming non-authoritative nameserver here), then the queries are responded else the queries FAIL (SERVFAIL?).
Is this assumption correct.. One way to fix this would be to add a forwarder for the subdomain on my nameserver to prevent any changes on partner company's nameserver. Any other approaches? cheers Maani.
