[Pdns-users] Delegation with a Pipe Backend

[Anthony Eden]

Has anyone done delegation with a pipe backend?  I'm trying to do this
right now and can not get SOA records working properly.  I am trying to 
look up an SOA record for gib.mp and I expect the server to respond that 
it is not the authority and to give me the authority records for 
ns1.sdcdns.mp and ns2.sdcdns.mp, however I am actually getting the SOA 
record for mp zone in the authority section of the response.  Here is 
the dig output:


; <<>> DiG 9.2.0 <<>> -p 9053 -t SOA @ns1.nic.mp gib.mp
;; global options:  printcmd
;; Got answer:

And here is the output from the backend process:

17421 Received: Q       gib.mp  IN      ANY     -1      64.65.105.51

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I'll leave the powerdns server 
running on port 9053 of ns1.nic.mp if you would like to query it yourself.
