Hi Chris Jones 44,<br>
<br>
It looks like your backend is doing too much work. In<br>
<a href="https://blog.powerdns.com/2015/06/23/what-is-a-powerdns-backend-and-how-do-i-make-it-send-an-nxdomain/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://blog.powerdns.com/2015/06/23/what-is-a-powerdns-backend-and-how-do-i-make-it-send-an-nxdomain/</a><br>
we clarify what is expected of a backend - just answer questions. PowerDNS<br>
will find out what zones exists and what don't (by asking your backend<br>
several questions).<br>
<br>
Good luck!<br>
<br>
Bert<br>
