Hi,

I am using pdns-static-3.4.4-1.x86_64, and I have a pipe backend which modifies 
local records based on the clients location in the network.  This means I need 
the authoritative server in front of the recursor so I can get their IP 
address.  The backend only handles the request if it finds an A records, 
otherwise it just sends END so it falls through, and pdns itself looks up the 
record in the database.  This works great, but I have a problem when it comes 
to serving CNAMEs that aren't local.  If they are local, it works fine.  For 
non-local records, from what I can see, the answer comes back from the database 
like server-1009579898.us-west-1.elb.amazonaws.com., then the server loops over 
the answer to find everything up to .com, finds nothing in the database, but I 
don't think it ever reaches out to the recursor.  It then returns nothing to 
the client.  I suppose that makes sense as an authoritative server, but is 
there any way to get this situation to work?  

Cheers
