      @johnpoz I have zabbix running under a subdomain with zabbix.violetdragonsnetwork.co.uk but with the view in place it resolves that subdomain.violetdragonsnetwork.co.uk straight to the WAN IP does this for other domains too that I am hosting.

        @VioletDragon this view has ZERO to do with that domain, that is not a subdomain of this domain.. That is completely different domain, it would have ZERO to do with what view you created for mailview domain.

        If you want to do something sim with that domain, then create another view..

          @johnpoz well it affects all the other domains under that VLAN. So no idea it is doing stuff it shouldn't be i know that for sure whether it is a bug or not but all internal stuff is all being routed to that WAN IP when the View is in place.

            No it doesn't not sure what you have done exactly.. But this is simple view that says have if a client asks me for something in domainx.tld and he comes from my access list - hand this record vs looking it up.. It has zero to do with any other dns that the client might ask for..

            Here - my 192.168.3 box that view would effect, looking up other shit no problem

            if you need it to look up other stuff that is in the same domain from public, ie outside the local-data you put in the view, then set it as transparent vs static.

              @johnpoz This is what I added as shows,

              access-control-view: 10.10.10.0/24 mailview
              view:
              name: "mailview"
              local-zone: "mail.violetdragons.co.uk" transparent
              local-data: "mail.violetdragons.co.uk. 3600 IN A 81.150."

              I tested with local-zone: "violetdragons.co.uk" transparent this worked for mail how ever a server which resolves to violetdragons.co.uk was broken, browser kept saying this page can't be resolved although dig in Linux how it resolves to 81.150. I changed to mail.violetdragons.co.uk which fixed the server which resolves to violetdragons.co.uk.

              However other Domains were affected on my phone. It is very strange how other domains were affected.

                Yeah it is strange because that simple view has zero to do with other domains - ZERO..

                Your zone and data there is WRONG btw.. the zone would be violetdragons.co.uk, the RR mail.violetdragons.co.uk. is in that zone..

                As to not resolving that its because it doesn't resolve on the public internet

                ;; QUESTION SECTION:
                ;violetdragons.co.uk.           IN      A
                
                ;; AUTHORITY SECTION:
                co.uk.                  3600    IN      SOA     dns1.nic.uk. hostmaster.nominet.org.uk. 1315457221 900 300 2419200 10800
                

                Did you create a local record in unbound for it? with either a host override, or a local-data record? If you want your local clients to resolve it?

                    @VioletDragon well I can not help you figure out what is going on if I can not actually see what resolves or doesn't resolve public, etc.

                    This is pretty basic stuff. I have gone over explicit examples of how to use a view to resolve something different for specific IP or network, etc.

                    Without some actual something to work with so I could see what your actually running into, I can not help you.. PM the actual info if you don't want to post it here..
