Hi BIND,

I’ve encountered (quite by accident) an interesting behavior in BIND with 
wildcard domains:

The relevant configuration is a zone; e.g. bar.com, with what I’ll call a 
“second level” wildcard host, e.g. *.foo.bar.com A 10.10.10.5 in that zone. (as 
opposed to what might be considered the more usual wildcard host record of 
*.bar.com).

buz.foo.bar.com returns A 10.10.10.5 as expected.

However, a query for foo.bar.com returns NOERR with zero results, when I would 
expect a NXDOMAIN.

Anyone know if the NOERR with zero results is the expected / correct behavior?

Thanks in advance,
