Hi David, >> Why does PowerDNS auth server not answer queries that it is both authoritative >> for, and has an answer for in its auth server when recursion is available and >> requested?
I did see you e-mail yesterday and I waited for someone knowledgable to try and answer this, because I just know what we do at work. First of all we feel strongly about seperating our recursive DNS and our authoritive DNS. We think this makes sense if we ever (need to) change software, And it's a good security practise. So we don't point recursive queries at an authorive nameserver. All we did is setup a few static forward-zones= in recursor.conf, were we needed it. I don't know how many such domains you have to deal with, so it may not be for you, but that's what we have. In other words, we don't want or need to use the 'recursive' part of the PowerDNS authoritive server at all. Not sure how it helps in your situation though. Have a nice day, Leen Besselink. _______________________________________________ Pdns-users mailing list Pdns-users@mailman.powerdns.com http://mailman.powerdns.com/mailman/listinfo/pdns-users
