Thanks for this clear feedback.<BR>
I understand the problem if the subdomain is not on the same name servers as the domain.<BR>
The NS record is needed to could find the subdomain on the other name server.<BR>
<BR>
You said that the NS is not mandatory (it will work fine in the short term) in case of the same name server for the domai nand the subdomain.<BR>
But how does it work then if no NS is found?<BR>
<BR>
<BR>

If you do not delegate the subdomains with NS records you are not fully delegating the subdomain. <BR>It will work fine in the short term, but are setting up a landmine for someone to step on later.<BR>If decide to move that subdomain to other dns servers later it will disappear without the NS records. <BR>
The best practice is to always put the NS records and not leave it to chance. <BR>
