[Dnsmasq-discuss] Delegate zone for sub-domain

[Thomas Eliasson]

Hi!

When running dnsmasq, I'd like to delegate a sub-domain to another
dnsmasq
instance on another server.

E.g.
To have one server handle example.com and another server to handle the
sub-domain sub.example.com.

To do this one should add an NS record to the delegating server (the
nameserver for example.com) pointing out the sub-domain nameserver,
and an A record for the nameserver address resolution.
I.e two entries like this:

sub.example.com IN NS ns.sub.example.com
ns.sub.example.com IN A 10.10.10.10

I cannot figure out how to do that using dnsmasq.
I find no way to add an NS entry.
Is it currently impossible to do such a delegation using dnsmasq?

/Thomas

Checkout the `--server` option in the dnsmasq man page. I think it does
almost exactly what you want.
