hello,
I would like to beable to delegate subdomains to seperate accounts.
For example
I have a domain called test.nl
User X can manage the records for this domein, but he could also create a
subdomein called userA.test.nl and give user A a login and have user A
manage only this subdomain.
This user A can add zones like www.userA.test.nl or ftp.userA.test.nl.
This user A can create a new subdomain called userAA.userA.test.nl and add a
login to manage this subdomain.
The same goes for B users etc..
I have tested this in PDNS and it is indeed possible (sort of) but suppose
user AA create this domain record
mail.userAA.userA.test.nl IN A 127.0.0.1
This would work, but if user A would create
mail.userAA.userA.test.nl IN A 127.0.0.2
There is a problem. Now I get 2 ipnumers when trying to resolve this.
I remember from my bind time that only the last (highest level) subdomain
configured answerd. But PDNS gives all possible anwers.
Is there a way to tell PDNS to not answer queries when there is a more
"detailed" subdomain availabe?
The way I wish to do this is by simple adding userA.test.nl to the
domains.name table/field
I also tested it by adding NS records to test.nl itself (ie userA.test.nl
NS atottalydifferentnameserver.nl) which had the same results.
The reason I ask is that I want to give some people ful control over their
subdomein without them having to worry if someone else has the same records.
I know the chances for this to happen are small but I like to be sure.
Mabye the anwer is simple but I have geen googling for some time now with no
result.
Thanks
