Yesterday, Niall corrected me off list. Hopefully what I write below is now correct:
Assume our nameserver SOA and related authoritatve NS record are in the zone w/$ORIGIN" "example.com.". Regardless of what the FQDN for the nameserver itself is, only a single **delegation** NS record needed, and it belongs in the ".com." TLD. In general the delegation NS record belongs in the zone w/an $ORIGIN, which is one level up from the $ORIGIN of the zone that contains: the nameserver SOA, and authority NS record. When this zone where the delegation NS record belongs is a TLD, one adds the delegation NS record using the registrar's tool that interfaces w/the TLD registry. -- Tom _______________________________________________ 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
