I'm not sure I fully understand, what exactly is any wildcard record good for?
As I said before, I can strangely resolve any hostname/subdomain under customer.com
to an IP number not identified yet (first thought it was the ns itself, it's not).

I'm not sure if my problem is related to that, I'll look into it at the weekend.

THX,
