Hi, I am experiencing problems to get a working forwarding configuration.
I am using BIND 9.3.6-P1 and the server has the global recursion parameter on. The server is not on a public network (not on Internet -- no access to root servers). I have a zone called "example.com" for which the server is master. A delegation called "sub.example.com" is in place and is working well. I want to change the recursion parameter from 'yes' to 'no' in order to get rid of the timeouts we get when we query something that is not defined in our DNS server (like www.google.com). Doing this breaks the delegation "sub.example.com", meaning the server doesn't do the research anymore for the subzone. So I deleted the delegation and configured a forward zone to the right IP addresses. The problem is named doesn't even try to query those forwarders and directly reply: "No answer" While it works for some other forwarded zones (reverse and non-reverse), I fail to understand why it doesn't work for that particular zone. The only difference I see is that this forwarded zone is a subzone of "example.com" for which the server is master. So my question: Is there any limitation to forward a subzone while we are master for the parent zone? Thanks a lot!
