You are correct, but it doesn't address the scenario that I'm asking about... Here is what I want to happen: 1) Client sends query to my server for: bar.search4me.foo.com 2) My server recognizes search4me.foo.com to be "special" and issues queries to the up-stream DNS servers (the "real" DNS servers) to see if any of them exist: * bar.zone1.foo.com * bar.zone2.foo.com * bar.zone3.foo.com 3a) If any of those exist, my server returns the answer back to the client, pretending that it was the answer for bar.search4me.foo.com. (i.e The client has no idea it's actually getting bar.zone3.foo.com's information, for example. It doesn't care. Trust me.) 3b) If all of those get NXDOMAIN, my server returns NXDOMAIN back to the client. (Sorry, I tried, but I just couldn't find "bar" in any of the zones that I checked.) In other words... any query from a client that ends in "search4me.foo.com" should be interpreted as a request to perform a DNS suffix search order on behalf of the client. > The FAQ also has a section on doing reverses: > - http://www.thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/docs/FAQ I went through the FAQ. It doesn't cover the scenario that I'm shooting for. _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list [email protected] http://lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
