Delegating on the same DNS server

[Marc Storck]

you cannot redelegate to the same server.... put everything into the same
zone:

$ORIGIN esponte.com.

@ IN SOA .....
@ IN NS .......
@ IN A ........
@ IN MX 10 ............

$ORIGIN meetu.esponte.com.

@ IN A ...........
etc

>I'm using bind 8.2.3-91 on suse 7.1, this machine is the primary for the
>domain 'esponte.com'
>I tried to create a delegation for the domain 'meetu.esponte.com' managed
on
>the same machine . The NS record for 'meetu.esponte.com' is pointing to the
>same machine as the NS for 'esponte.com'
>
>When I'm trying to query the server (212.179.27.121) for new records in
>'meetu.esponte.com' I'm getting mixed responses
