Subject: unable to forward to localhost dns without having to serve wrong RRs for the nameservers

Date: Tue, 21 Oct 2008 14:43:09 +0200

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: unbound
Version: 1.0.2-1
Severity: normal
tags: upstream

I brought this issue up on the unbound mailing list:

  http://unbound.nlnetlabs.nl/pipermail/unbound-users/2008-October/000240.html

Basically, if I try to use forward-zone or stub-zone to redirect
queries for certain zones to a (nsd3 instance) DNS server running on
localhost, I have to add something like

  % IN NS ns.%
  ns.% IN A 127.0.0.1

to the zone, or else unbound will not forward. This behaviour has
been hackishly fixed upstream, but I'd really rather see it fixed
properly.

Hi Martin,

Update: svn r1319 of unbound contains a fix.
By default, stubs use the addresses listed by operator.
If you set stub-prime: yes ; then it treats it like (root-)hints.

Best regards,
   Wouter
