Stub zones record the NS list and associated address records for
the zone. Think of it as pre-populating the cache.
Forwarder clauses override the normal recusive resolution process.
A empty forwarders clause disables the override for names at or
below the "zone" it appears in.
These are independent configuration options. If you want to stop
forwarding for a namespace you have to explicitly stop doing it.
zone sub.example.net {
type stub;
masters { 1.2.3.4; };
file "sub.example.net.stub";
forwarders { /*empty */ };
};
The primary use of stub zones is to graft on namespace that isn't
to be found by following delegations.
