s6 is a subdomain of the parent domain. Unless otherwise specified,
subdomains are mastered (NS'd) by the parent (or extended parent
domain) containing NS records. As such, because you didn't put any
NS records in the zone file for s6, it follows the NS records of the
parent which happen to be the same name server as s6. On the other
hand, if you had attempted to master s6 on a different name server,
it would not have worked.<br>

So ... if we have <br>
<br>
exacttarget.com delegated to ns1 and ns2.exacttarget.com
nameservers<br>
<br>
and ... we manage the s6.exacttarget.com zone file from ns1 and
ns2.exacttarget.com <br>
<br>
but we don't delegate s6 in the exacttarget.com zone file ...
forgot to enter it in the zone file ... <br>
<br>
how is it that s6.exacttarget.com and its contents resolve
properly from everywhere?<br>
<br>
Seems BIND is helping us out behind the scenes somehow. Right? <br>
<br>
Confused. <br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
