In your original post you posited something like this, if I understood
you correctly:

Parent:

$ORIGIN 4.3.2.1.foo.
8.7.6.5		NS	ns1.example.com.

ns1.example.com (child):

$ORIGIN 4.3.2.1.foo.
0.0.0.0		A	blah.example.com.
1.1.1.1		A	baz.example.com.

Under that scenario clients in the cloud would never query
ns1.example.com for 0.0.0.0.4.3.2.1.foo or 1.1.1.1.4.3.2.1.foo because
they'd have no delegation to it.

If I misunderstood, sorry for the noise.


Doug
