Well, of course, I've already complained about the lack of domains on 
the PRIV server. But it's a production system already installed at a 
large number of customer sites. Changing it will be a long and difficult 
process. I know what needs to be fixed there but I can't do it myself.

Your suggestion of separate forwarding zones for each PRIV host, while 
not elegant as you say, may be fairly practical. I can script an update 
to named.conf based on the actual hosts present on the PRIV system. I've 
tried that and it works! Thanks for the idea.
