A lot of times we get responses that look like: FOO.BAR CNAME EXAMPLE.BAR EXAMPLE.BAR A 1.1.1.1
BIND currently (atleast with the default settings) when it encounters a CNAME stops processing and checks if EXAMPLE.BAR is in cache or else sends out another query to resolve it even though the A record in the packet completes the chain. Now, is there a setting in BIND to accept the A record or do providers and ISPs keep adding these information in the hope that some resolver might use it ? If there is a setting in BIND to accept it, what is it and does it only work if the label and the alias of the CNAME are in the same zone. Help is much appreciated. -srinivas _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
