In DNS can an IN NS point to a CNAME?
- by Mark Wagner
Is it allowed to have an NS record be a CNAME? E.g.:
subdomain.example.com. IN NS ns1.example.com.
ns1.example.com. CNAME foo.example.com.
foo.example.com. IN A 10.1.1.1
This doesn't seem to work in bind though this (of course) does:
subdomain.example.com. IN NS foo.example.com.
foo.example.com. IN A 10.1.1.1
Any pointers to RFCs prohibiting this setup would be appreciated.
