Have you looked at mirror zones for root? Zone type "mirror" = it's appropriate for "." but not for other zones. (Oh - and don't forget to disable ixfr for this zone when you do that - it's more efficient for the validation step) Details in the BIND ARM. Cathy On 19/11/2023 21:10, Elmar K.

So... without stub zones, you know the drill: your local resolver follows delegation, starting from the root nameservers. Delegation happens, and life is good. If you're running views, then things work fine as well: your view just needs to be configured to allow queries from your local resolvers.

The typical use case for a stub zone is where the delegation chain is broken, or incorrect, but you don't want to incur the overhead of slaving the zone (or some other sort of bureaucratic snafu like the owner/admin of the zone not letting you do zone transfers). As a general rule, stub zones

Not quite, Bill. You point the zone at a different name server, but _your_own_nameserver_ still does the iterative queries to make things happen. It just queries a different set of nameservers than would happen through normal delegation. The only recursive query going on is from the client t
