Jamie, First of, I must correct that for the wild DNS entry, there is a trailing '.' on the real entry. Having said that. Two questions. #1 Why Illegal? what is the theory behide it. I don't see the problem? #2 If I want to pass DNS inquiry to the primary server(ie server that does not allowed ZONE transfer) I thought for that, all I need to do is to pass NS record to that server. Any Suggestion?
