(Thanks in advance).

I'm looking to forward any queries to powerDNS for project<redacted>.co.uk. to the windows dns as this is part of a windows domain.

For clarity, this is what the AD DNS looks like at the moment

The only current DNS server is DC01 which has an IP of 10.66.10.11. In windows you can create a conditional forwarder to do the same thing, but my other DNS is hosted in powerDNS so unsure of how to proceed as everywhere seems to show NS records and not a great deal else, but this hasn't been working for me.

This is what I have attempted so far with powerDNS note: A records for DC01/DC02 have been a later addition to try and match what windows has - obviously in vain.

And for good measure, here is my recursor.conf for PowerDNS. Hopefully as this should show any DNS queries are first thrown to the authoritative server before the upstream DNS server (in this case the router).

Just a note - non-AD integrated devices can see the NS records and A records above that are on powerdns but cannot see the other records hosted on windows DNS.

EDIT: I've also tried the NS records using both name and number.

NOTE: This is all internal, but I am trying to set this up as part of a simulation.
