Actually, if you use dig and pay really close attention you should see you request www.wemakednssimple.com <http://www.sunnybliss.com> But it returns wemakednssimple.com. without the www. Which is wrong. A recursor will recognise this and just ignore that part of the answer (there is nothing else in the answer so you get nothing). I don't know what the cause is, but this is the result and why it doesn't work. > forwarding record? > > > Please tell us what you dig for and which server - presumably > yours - you are asking. > As there is no such thing as a "URL forwarding record" in DNS in > general, is it safe to assume that you mean a "URL" fancy record > type such as in http://doc.powerdns.com/fancy-records.html ? > > > Working: dig @ns1.dnsimple.com <http://ns1.dnsimple.com> > www.wemakednssimple.com <http://www.sunnybliss.com> > Not working: dig @8.8.8.8 <http://8.8.8.8> www.wemakednssimple.com > <http://www.sunnybliss.com> > > And yes, by URL forwarding record I mean the URL fancy record type as > described in the PowerDNS documentation. > > Any help would be appreciated.
