delegation over authority?

[Todd Snyder]

Good day,

I am trying to wrap my head around a weird configuration I ran across
today, and see if my assumptions are correct.

Working with the TLD .testdomain.

We have the record:

test2.testdomain.	IN	NS	ns01.blahblah.testdomain.


But, on the same server, we also have the zone configured:

zone "test2.testdomain" in {
        file "slave/test2.testdomain";
        type slave;
        masters { all_masters; };
};


So, on the server, we have a delegation of test2.testdomain but we're
also authoritative for that domain.

My testing seems to indicate that the authorty overrides the delegation,
but I wanted to see if I was correct.  Will it always override?  Is this
a bad configuration?  Will it cause any problems along the way?

Or am I wrong about how all this works altogether?

Thanks much,

Todd.
