No it won't forward unless you have all the records. I don't see how this is 
scalable.

Subject: DNS Partial zone CNAMEs?

Long story made somewhat short:  We enforce safe search on google images with 
our filter. If a clever student hits https://www.google.com and searches for 
Excalibur Films images the safe search enforcement fails and they are going to 
get more than they should. And since I now know this, I will go to jail and my 
wife will be sad.

So I need to do the below from Google:


To utilize this solution, your school's network administrator would modify your 
DNS (Domain Name System) configuration to make Google domains, e.g. 
www.google.com<http://www.google.com> to be an alias or CNAME (canonical name) 
of nossl.google.com. When we see search requests arriving over the nossl end 
point we will redirect these to a non-SSL search session. HTTP traffic and 
other services will not be affected.



I am a bit puzzled on how to do this. If I toss up a zone for google.com and 
put up a www.google.com<http://www.google.com> CNAME nossl.google.com   What 
happens when someone tries to hit mail.google.com? My zone lookup will 
fail...will my DNS server then hit my forwarders for mail.google.com
