@user1686: I am trying to figure out why it is not working as configured (namely: so that a single example.com entry and its servers handle everything *.example.com - which does not work right now and I need to specifically create forward-zone entries pointing to the same servers to handle subdomains of example.com). If this is how it is supposed to work, I will get some traces and post it to the mailing list.

@user1686: Sorry, I did not notice that you highlighted is. Do you mean that hello.world.subdomain.again.example.com should be covered by the single example.com entry?, where world.subdomain.again.example.com, subdomain.again.example.com, etc. are domains?

@user1686: if I add a forward-zone for, say, sub.example.com, everything in sub.example.com is resolved correctly. The problem is that there may be tons of various sub (and sub-sub, and sub-sub-sub, .. domains and that I do not know them. The thing I know is that they will be resolved by the DNS servers 10.20.30.[1,2] (that will, if needed, forward the resolution somewhere else for delegated subdomains for instance). This is why I am seriously hoping to be able to configure *.example.com (where * is greedy). And to your question: the output in the case I add subdomains is fine.

This is how you say "everything below example.com". Does the situation change if you actually add a separate entry for a subzone? Does unbound-control list_forwards show any unexpected entries?
