[Pdns-users] Powerdns server is not passing Authority parameter

The server is now working as expected.

I have checked via Dns checker and the result is as shown on the link below.

https://mxtoolbox.com/SuperTool.aspx?action=dns%3aessyfortunes.com&run=toolpage

The issue was on dnsdist configuration it worked by changing.

    recursive_ips:addMask('0.0.0.0/ <http://127.0.0.1/8>0')
     to
    recursive_ips:addMask('127.0.0.1/8')

Thank you for your assistance.
