Re: [BIND-BUGS #18] Non-delegated master domains

The bug is that domains which have valid delegations within the DNS
system can not be overriden with local master files. IE. If I make
a master file for microsoft.com, www.microsoft.com remains with the
IP microsoft give it and not what I give it. Domains which are
delegated to me eg EMIT.PL. a or domains which have no delegation
anywhere eg. EMIT. work as expected.

i'm using 8.2 and it seems to work as expected for me.  my test:

   # ping www.foo.org
   PING latte.foo.org (24.239.1.12): 56 data bytes
   64 bytes from 24.239.1.12: icmp_seq=0 ttl=53 time=242.237 ms
   ^C
   ----latte.foo.org PING Statistics----
   1 packets transmitted, 1 packets received, 0% packet loss
   round-trip min/avg/max = 242.237/242.237/242.237 ms
   # vi /etc/named.conf
   (add foo.org zone with me as master)
   # ndc reload
   # ping www.foo.org
   ping: Cannot resolve "www.foo.org" (Unknown host)
   # vi /etc/named.conf
   (remove foo.org zone)
   # ndc reload
   # ping www.foo.org
   PING latte.foo.org (24.239.1.12): 56 data bytes
   64 bytes from 24.239.1.12: icmp_seq=0 ttl=53 time=242.237 ms
   ^C
   ----latte.foo.org PING Statistics----
   1 packets transmitted, 1 packets received, 0% packet loss
   round-trip min/avg/max = 242.237/242.237/242.237 ms
   #

no problem there.  can you reproduce this reliably?
