Re: configuring subdomains
You need to create one or more NS records for subdomain1.dummy.com in the
DNS for dummy.com
Example:
subdomain1 IN NS somehost.dummy.com.
IN NS otherhost.other.com.
Note the trailing dot in the hostnames for the NS records, they are
mandatory! That is half the problem. You will still need access to the
reverse DNS, the in-addr.arpa domain for the network that the hosts will
reside on so that the reverse resolution will work (a request of the IP
address returns the proper hostname).
Now you set up a zone on the two nameservers for the subdomain.
