Entry

How do I delegate a subdomain to another nameserver?

Apr 17th, 2003 14:30
Capt. Mooboy, http://cr.yp.to/djbdns/tinydns-data.html


To delegate foo.hosted_domain.com to example.com's nameservers, make
these entries in the tinydns "data" file:

&foo.hosted_domain.com::ns1.example.com
&foo.hosted_domain.com::ns2.example.com

This is useful when you're delegating to a separate organization and do
not want to create a dependency on the IP address of these nameservers.
