[nsd-users] How to delegate subdomain? NS record ignored?

[Alexander Skwar]

Hello

I'm using nsd 4.1.20 on OpenBSD 6.3. I'd like to delegate a subdomain,
but it just doesn't work… Below, I'll paste the configuration for the
domain "sheek.ch", where I'd like to delegate the subdomain "ghi"
(ie. ghi.sheek.ch) to ns1.exacttarget.com..

As you can see, I just added this line to the zone file:

ghi NS ns1.exacttarget.com.

But a "dig @9.9.9.9 -t ns ghi.sheek.ch" doesn't return anything; a
"dig @9.9.9.9 -t a abc.sheek.ch" (abc being defined in the same zone
file) returns what's defined there.

The zone is "live", ie. you can run the queries yourself.

It seems, as if nsd just doesn't send the NS record.

Would be great, if anyone could help.

Thanks a lot,
Alexander
