<div dir="ltr">Well, long story short - both nameservers (which are not connected to each other) resolve different names providing access to different private resources. In another words, the second nameserver doesn't know anything about the first's private resources and vice versa. And I need access to all of them at the same time. The problem is that resources are placed on different two-level subdomains. I mean not only on <a href="http://example.com">example.com</a>, but on a bunch of another subdomains which I can not predict, i.e. I can't use <span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">server=/</span><a href="http://github.example.com/192.168.0.2" target="_blank" style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">example.com/192.168.0.2</a><div>

</div>Perhaps you'd get better help here if you described the ultimate<br>
goal, why you want to do this? AFAIK this is not possible (but I<br>
haven't gone through the man page to see if there's an option for<br>
this purpose.)<br>

</div></div>My best guess here is that <a href="http://github.example.com" target="_blank">github.example.com</a> (or <a href="http://example.com" target="_blank">example.com</a> itself)<br>
is somehow representing a special name, one for which 192.168.0.2<br>
might be authoritative. In that case, you need to specify the domain<br>
in the server directive:<br>
<br>
server=/<a href="http://github.example.com/192.168.0.2" target="_blank">github.example.com/192.168.0.2</a><br>
<br>
Do this in addition to "server=192.168.0.2" if 192.168.0.2 should<br>
also be providing resolver service for you.<br>
