Named automatically sets up "empty" reverse zones for nonroutable address spaces, to prevent your network sending PTR queries out for things like 10.1.2.3, which can only be configured locally. These zones were interacting badly forward-only zones. For example, if you set up a forward zone for 100.10.in-addr.arpa, which is beneath the empty zone 10.in-addr.arpa, PTR queries for 10.100.*.* should be forwarded while all other queries for 10.* should be answered from the empty zone. That wasn't working; now it is. -- Evan Hunt -- e...@isc.org Internet Systems Consortium, Inc. _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
