[dnsdist] Question about local override

[Frank @ kiwazo.be]

Dnsdist would always need an authoritative server to server domains (note that you can distill dns replies in dnsdist, it really shouldn't be used for your use case).


The backend doesn't need to be PowerDNS: dnsdist is just used to send traffic to a different backend based on the parameters you decide (eg source ip)
