<p>It looks like the expected behaviour to me. Try "rec_control
get-parameter forward-zones-file" instead.<br>
</p>
<p>However, you should not put your forward zones file under
/etc/powerdns/recursor.d/. That's because powerdns tries to read
all the files in that directory as powerdns configuration
directives. You'll see the following in the default config:<br>
</p>
<p>include-dir=/etc/powerdns/recursor.d<br>
</p>
<p>Therefore, put them in another directory. I just use one level
up:</p>
<p># rec_control get-parameter forward-zones-file<br>
forward-zones-file="/etc/powerdns/forward.zones"<br>
# <br>
</p>
<p>Regards,</p>
<p>Brian.<br>
