I don't know what's "normal", but BIND9 should continue with the process with the server that has an address (while trying to resolve addresses of other NSes). > For example: > Trying to resolve www.testing.server.com > When contacting "server.com" nameserver I receive in the answer 3 NS and 1 A > Additional record: > testing.server.com NS ns1.testing.server.com > testing.server.com NS ns2.testing.server.com > testing.server.com NS ns3.testing.server.com > ns1.testing.server.com A 192.123.123.23 In this case BIND9 should immediately send a subsequent query to 192.123.123.23. --- JINMEI, Tatuya Internet Systems Consortium, Inc. _______________________________________________ bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
