Or one can use nslookup from BIND 9 which doesn't have that restriction. nslookups with this restriction are at least 10 years old now and there have been new types added. DNSSEC has been completely overhauled in that time. Mark -- Mark Andrews, ISC 1 Seymour St., Dundas Valley, NSW 2117, Aust

Put record.ourdomain.com as a CNAME in both your internal and external views. Internal user will query internal view and get CNAME record to record.client.otherdomain.com. Your recursive name server will look up record.client.otherdomain.com and get the CNAME record to otherhost.otherdomain.c

Who will be using this in-house DNS server? Your local users? If yes, then you will need to enable recursion so they can look up outside resources (google.com, etc.) If this server will strictly be an authoritative server for your domain, then it won't need recursion but queries that return a

If you are authoritative for a cname that points to an A elsewhere, your server will resolve the cname and leave it to the client dns server to go get the A from the server that hosts it. On Mar 16, 2012 10:14 AM, "Samantha Steers" wrote: > Hi, > > I am getting prepped to migrate dns from one ser
