Sorry, that really is pretty ambiguous. I meant that anything in
subdomain.foo.example.com won't resolve to the normal address. I started
thinking about it and I wasn't sure why that is, so I ran a few tests.
One of the domains that I forge is slashdot.org. As expected,
yro.slashdot.org won't resolve on my box. Yay! That's because Bind
believes it is authoritative for the whole *.slashdot.org zone, so
anything not listed doesn't exist. foo.bar.yro.slashdot.org doesn't work
either.
