[Pdns-users] How to make Authoritative work?

[jrd-pdns at jrd.org]

Oops.  Yes.  Port 53 has a pdns-recursor listening on it, which is
feeding requests to pdns.  Want the recursor config too?

dig -p 5300 jrd.org soa @localhost

    RD = recursion desired, RA = recursion available.  Are you *sure* it's
    powerdns authoritative that you're talking to on localhost port 53?!
    
    Ah, digging through your config:
    
    > # local-port=53
    > local-port=5300
    
    Clearly, it isn't.  Your dig query is going to something else (unspecified)
    which is listening on port 53.  That'll be why you're not getting AA.
