I haven't found an explicit example for this in the pdns documentation - possibly because this is a "straight" DNS question and *shouldn't* be implementation specific...but I'm admitting ignorance all around.<br><br>I understand how to define a "basic" zone (at least, they work...). And, I've been able to register domains with various services and access those domains via the public internet. What I don't know how to do - because I still don't fully understand DNS resolution - is how to declare/publish a sub-domain.<br><br>Given a published zone of ".myzone.com" - I want to have a list of hosts like:<br><br>a.sub.myzone.com<br>b.sub.myzone.com<br>c.sub.myzone.com<br><br>Nothing special. I can implement this by explicitly declaring each host in my parent zone - and this works. But I want to manage the subdomain separately. So besides creating a zone ".sub.myzone.com" and adding the host records - what other "glue" is required?<br><br>Do I need to explicitly publish ".sub.myzone.com" with my registrar?<br><br>Do I place NS records for ".sub.myzone.com" in the parent zone?<br><br>Do I place NS records for ".sub.myzone.com" in the sub-zone?<br><br>Do I need to explicitly declare a forward-zone for ".sub.myzone.com" in addition to the parent zone?<br><br>Any help would be appreciated - and I think the docs could benefit from this explicit example.<br><br><signature>--<br>Daniel</signature></div></body></html>
