Gah - Looks like I was able to drop our name server's hostname into the table and have it work properly. I figured pdns wanted the names to resolve to the IP provided in the supermasters table - but that wasn't required.

Thanks!

Hello users,

We are operating a shared hosting server and attempting to setup two separate authoritative name servers. We chose PowerDNS for this because of the supermaster functionality. The plan was to have our shared hosting server (running BIND) set as a supermaster on ns1 (PowerDNS), so when changes were made there, they would be replicated to our actual authoritative servers (ns1 & ns2 - that are defined in the SOA + NS records for each zone). Something like the following...

[ SHARED SERVER ] -- (master) ------------- (slave) --> [ NS1 ] -- (master) ------------- (slave) --> [ NS2 ]

I have BIND sending notifies to ns1, but ns1 is throwing the following error for each domain..

Received NOTIFY for domain.com from 10.125.1.3 for which we are not authoritative Unable to find backend willing to host domain.com for potential supermaster 10.125.1.3

I believe this is because our shared server is not listed in the zone files anywhere (namely the NS records as mentioned in the supermaster section of the manual). Is there any way around this? This would work _perfectly_ if I could just get around the NS record requirement for supermasters.

Thanks in advance!
