Sub Domain Delegation using Bind

January 28, 2013 at 12:43 pm Leave a comment

Hi All

When you are administrating the Bind you may come across to host a sub domain delegated to another DNS server from a different provider.These requests are usually from the Web Hosting Provider which helps them to modify the required records on their own using their Name Server.

In this scenario   open the zone file in for eg:-  test.com and add the following lines ( Adding Sub domain “sample.test.com”)

;Sub Doman delegation for the domain  sample.test.com

$ORIGIN sample.test.com.

@     NS       ns1.webhost.com. (Other DNS Severs  , you could add multiple lines of DNS servers)

NS       ns2.webhost.com.
