Hello,
We have a bind server (v9.6) that's hosts mydomain.com
<http://mydomain.com>. I'm trying to create a CNAME for
host.mydomain.com <http://host.mydomain.com> to point to
host.otherdomain.com <http://host.otherdomain.com>. I don't host
otherdomain.com <http://otherdomain.com>.
My entry currently reads:
sip IN CNAME sip.otherdomain.com <http://sip.otherdomain.com>.
But my DNS server isn't resolving it. It just returns a list of root
nameservers.
Are you *just* getting a list of root nameservers (i.e. a totally
*empty* Answer Section)? What RCODE is being returned? Or, are you
perhaps getting the CNAME in the Answer Section? If you're getting the
CNAME, then that's all another nameserver needs in order to resolve the
name.
Or, were you expecting that your authoritative nameserver would be
performing recursion for clients?
I've searched this mailing list and found threads that said this
should work. But also saw a post that said this isn't allowed
(http://www.experts-exchange.com/Networking/Linux_Networking/Q_27656615.html)
I couldn't see the incorrect answer, to mock it, since it's behind a
paywall.
