Despite what is said about the "dont-query'" setting in https://docs.powerdns.com/recursor/settings.html#dont-query there are cases where this does not work as designed. This likely happens when NS records of subzones of a forwarded zone are cached. Probable workaround: make sure you dont list the IPs you are forewarding to in in "dont-query". See the URL above for the default value. I'm putting this on my list of things to investigate. -Otto _______________________________________________ Pdns-users mailing list Pdns-users@mailman.powerdns.com https://mailman.powerdns.com/mailman/listinfo/pdns-users
