This is correct operation. Recursive/iterative servers talking to it do not need your server to resolve the target of the cname. They will go ask the nameservers for the target of the cname themselves then combine the two answers and return that to the caller. Stub resolvers need to talk to a recursive server so it can do this work on their behalf. > I'd like to know if there is a way to tell to BIND "if the external > resource is in a domain managed by you, resolve (do recourse)" > > Do you know if it is possible?
