[Pdns-users] Pdns recursor - forward-zones-file not working

[Djerk Geurts]

Hi all,

Reading up on recursor settings I found that with forward-zones-file one can set recurse an RD flag and also add domains to an allow-notify-for list.

"Zones prefixed with a ‘+’ are treated as with forward-zones-recurse <https://doc.powerdns.com/recursor/settings.html#forward-zones-recurse>. Default behaviour without ‘+’ is as with forward-zones <https://doc.powerdns.com/recursor/settings.html#forward-zones>."

"Zones prefixed with a ‘^’ are added to the allow-notify-for <https://doc.powerdns.com/recursor/settings.html#allow-notify-for> list. Both prefix characters can be used if desired, in any order."

However, when I try this. I get the following errors thrown no matter whether I use either ‘+’, ‘^’, both or without.

Has the format of this file changed?
