I'm not sure quite how to properly describe this, and as a result my searches aren't turning up much....
To support a legacy app, I need to have a domain defined called "selfservice" so I can support resolution of "www.selfservice". Yes, no trailing .com, .net, etc.... ugly, but I need it for now. This domain actually lives on our AD servers, so I thought I'd do the following: zone "selfservice" { type forward; forwarders { adserver....; }; }; However, this doesn't work. Queries just return the TLD servers for . as the SOA. Querying the AD servers directly works fine. However, if I actually define a master zone: zone "selfservice" { type master; file "selfservice.zone"; notify yes; allow-transfer { secondary; }; }; And explicitly define the A record I need, then queries for www.selfservice respond correctly. It's almost as if BIND prefers the less specific hint zone for "." over my forward zone definition for "selfservice" -- but not if I make it a master zone... Any ideas? Am running BIND 9.8.2 on RHEL6.
