I did. What do you mean by not working properly ? Before
asking my original question I had already tried both
implementations (subdomain vs delegation on same server)
and both work fine. That's why I asked what you do in a
production system. Actually, if you create a new zone on
a server where a parent zone already exists, the DNS
server automagically does the local delegation for you.
Also, as Kurt pointed out, the _MSDCS is another such
example. I read the document Kurt referenced but it just
explains delegation in the classic role (hosting a
subomain on a different server).
