[Pdns-users] Confused about authoritativeness

[John Miller]

Mohamed,

A couple of questions:

- Can you paste your dig command?  Presumably you're doing a dig 
@localhost or similar, but good to be sure.  A paste of your PowerDNS 
configs would also be helpful.
- Do you have a recursor IP configured in the auth. server's config?
- What is allow-recursion set to?
