Selective forwarding and stub zones are available in Microsoft DNS, or so I'm told...

(Although I feel obligated to point out that this is a BIND-oriented list, so you may not get a lot of configuration advice for Microsoft products).

I don't think the child domain is on BIND so that may or may not be an option. But, good idea. Thanks for your help!

Another option would be zone level forwarding on the child to point at the parent or stub zones.

In this case, the root only knows the external public server, not the internal parent who is doing the delegating. So it would seem that slaving the internal parent is the only solution for resolving hosts in the internal parent domain, correct?

The child doesn't know it's parent and goes up to the root like any other server would.

Reading the section on delegation in the O'Reilly book, I'm confused about
something: The parent is configured to delegate the subdomain to the child
with glue records, etc. But how does the child know who to ask if a host in
the subdomain requests a record in the parent zone? They don't show any
configuration example for that other than making the child a slave for the
parent zone.
