Hello @Richard Beyer ,
Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Platform. Thank you for reaching out & hope you are doing well.
I understand that you were unable to verify a zone using nslookup before domain delegation.
I checked internally and found that you already created a support request for this issue and below is the resolution summary:
- The support team was able to see the correct resolution for your DNS zone by specifying the Azure nameservers and nslookup was also working fine.
- You checked on your end again and found that nslookup is broken in the interactive mode if you specify "server ns1-01.azure-dns.com" and then proceed to query.
- It works fine if you do a single line nslookup command.
- You also tested with dig on a Macintosh and all seem to be correct.
Kindly let us know if you need further assistance on this issue.
