If a recursive resolver passes NXDOMAIN to a requesting validator, then the result has to prove NXDOMAIN, so there has to be either an NSEC or NSEC3 record that proves that the name does not exist. If the authoritative proves NODATA, then this will fail. _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list -- dnsop@ietf.org To unsubscribe send an email to dnsop-le...@ietf.org
