Hey there,

I am having an issue forwarding DNS queries and was hoping, that one of you 
might be able to help me:

I have the following setup:

DNS-Server reachable from the internet, is authoritative for zone foo.com
DNS-Server reachable only locally, should be authoritative for zone 
test.lab.foo.com
What I try to achieve:

When a DNS query from the outside world reaches the first DNS server for a 
record belonging to the zone test.lab.foo.com, I want it to make a recursive 
request to the second DNS server and then forward the records.

I explicitly don't want to do zone transfers or make the second DNS server 
reachable from the internet.

my configuration looks like this: (I only copied the [what I think] important 
parts to here, as all the Config would be a few hundret lines (because of split 
view and many zones)

On the first DNS-Server

options {
allow-recursion {
localnets;
localhost;
internal;
my-datacenter;
mc-office;
};
};

zone "test.lab.foo.com" {
forward only;
forwarders {
<private IP of second DNS server>;
};
type forward;
};

zone "foo.com" {
file "/etc/bind/zones/foo.com.zone";
type master;
};
My issue:

When I am in a local network, that is whitelisted in the allow-recursion block, 
then it works as expected. When I try the DNS lookup from the internet, then i 
get a NOERROR with an empty response back.

During debugging, I adjusted the allow-recursion list and added any to it. Then 
it was working. But I don't want my DNS server to allow any kind of recursion. 
I actually only want "outside" lookups for this one specific zones to be 
recursive.

How can I set something like allow-recursion for just one zone?

Thanks a lot already
