On your resolver, create a zone called something.xyz.com and only have one entry, an A record for the zone itself. something like this: ---begin something.xyz.com zonefile--- something.xyz.com. in soa ns1.abc.com. hostmaster.abc.com. ( 2014050901 3H 300 2W

Re: Answer for a specific host, but recurse for all others within a zone

2014-05-08 Thread John Wingenbach
What you are looking for is basically dnsmasq. That allows you to override specific resolutions, while letting the rest go through the normal process. BIND does not allow you to have split authority for a single zone. if you say something.xyz.com is handled locally, then anything under that

2014-05-08 Thread John Wingenbach
I wouldn't say we migrated in that direction due to anything other then lack of good options. What BIND is missing is the concept of an update master. Augment BIND with the following: * Each master is aware of the other masters. * One master is defined as an update master (rndc control?) *

A few thoughts... The DNS protocol is already pretty good at replicating zone data - see for instance John Wingenbach's message in which he describes how their deployment gradually converged on a fairly standard architecture :-) I think multi-master makes most sense if the primary master uses DNS
