I've got a bind recursion DNS server setup that is returning the wrong value for an outside domain that I also maintain and host on another server running a bind DNS server. Yet Google's DNS and other major DNS providers respond with the correct IP address A record when querying. I can't figure out why my recursion enabled instance is not returning the correct IP address for a specific host. Rather, it returns the wildcard value from the zonefile rather than the specifically specified A record entry created for that host.
It appears bind to bind is returning the wildcard value for a specifically defined host in the zonefile from the server it's hosted on. Is this a recent bug in bind? More information about my setup and issue can be found here: https://serverfault.com/questions/1136914/bind-recursion-dns-server-returning-wildcard-address-for-host-despite-exact-entr >From what I found online, if there's a specific host A record entry defined, it should always return that IP. Wildcard is only for those not defined. Yet, when I remove the wildcard from the zonefile, my bind recursion instance returns the correct value, but not when the wildcard entry is there. But Google and other major DNS providers return the non-wildcard value as expected. Any help is appreciated.
