Ah, so I just looked in the wrong piece of software, it seems. I will give it a try, thank you. :) signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ Pdns-users mailing list Pdns-users@mailman.powerdns.com http://mailman.powerdns.com/mailman/listinfo/pdns-users

[Pdns-users] pdns forwarding problem
Hi there, I'm not particulary used to configuring a nameserver, so I will first state what I'm trying to accomplish and how I intend to get the job done. Please correct me, if I am misguided in some way or just missed something obvious in the documentation. For my private needs I set up two PDNS nameservers with mysql backend. Both servers are running 2.9.22 from Debian testing and are synced via mysql replication. Therefore neither server is configured as master or slave. The setup works well within my expectations. It resolves records it has and is authoritative for and recurses to another nameserver for stuff it doesn't have. I'm now trying to get it to forward requests for specific zones to other nameservers. In my understanding one would simply supply a NS record for e.g. test.de . If now a client would query an A record for e.g. www.test.de the nameserver would happily go to the server stated in the NS record for test.de and return the results. In my case the server doesn't query the foreign nameserver but queries the recursor and of course returns that the record is not present. Could someone open my eyes to the thing I'm obviously missing?
