I tried that. It doesn't work either.

with this setup:
    zone "test.com." {
        type master;
        file "db.test";
        allow-pdate {
            localhost;
        };
    };
    zone "test.org." {
        type master;
        file "db.test";
        allow-update {
            localhost;
        };
    }; 

If I try to make both updates at once
> [root at d35:Active] config # nsupdate
> server 127.0.0.1
> update add blah.test.com 500 in a 1.2.3.4
> update add blah.test.org 500 in a 1.2.3.4
>
update failed: NOTZONE
>

If I try to make them individually the first
one succeeds and the 2nd fails
# nsupdate
> 127.0.0.1
> update add blah.test.com 500 in a 1.2.3.4
>
> update add blah.test.org 500 in a 1.2.3.4
>
update failed: SERVFAIL

Unless you see a problem with my methods?

Thanks.
