For example I have a zone example.com and someone created a dotted hostname app.subzone which resolves to app.subzone.example.com in it.
Now I create a new zone subzone.example.com and an record appin it.
At this point I can no longer query the record app.subzone in the zone example.com, but I still can update/delete it with nsupdate, e.g.
nsupdate -k .key
> server xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
> zone example.com
> update delete app.subzone.example.com a
> send
My question:
Is there any way to query for a Record in a specific zone? I couldn't find an option for nslookup or dig.
For my concrete use case I deleted the old dotted hostname records and just wanted to check whether they are gone. At this point I found out, that nslookup does not support the same zone specifier like nsupdate.
