I'm running a bind 9.8-server and want to delegate a sub-domain to a different dns-server (also administered by me), but I can't seem to get bind to accept my config and I can't figure out why.
Below is my zone-file. I've anonymized it and deleted records of no interest for this topic. Basically I want 192.168.1.12 to handle the tree subdomains prod.mydomain.com, test.mydomain.com and stageing.mydomain.com.
When I run the named-checkzone, this what I get:
named-checkzone mydomain.com. /root/mydomain.com
dns_master_load: /root/mydomain.com:22: test.mydomain.com: CNAME and other data
zone mydomain.com/IN: loading from master file /root/mydomain.com failed: CNAME and other data
zone mydomain.com./IN: not loaded due to errors.
Zonefile:
$ORIGIN mydomain.com.
$TTL 6h
@ IN SOA ns01.mydomain.com. hostmaster.mydomain.com. (
2015030502 ; serial number
3600 ; refresh
3600 ; retry
604800 ; expire
3600 ) ; minimum TTL
; Zone NS records
@ NS ns01.mydomain.com.
@ NS ns02.mydomain.com.
; Zone records
ns01 A 192.168.1.10
ns02 A 192.168.1.11
; SUBDOMAINS
prod.mydomain.com. NS ns03.prod.mydomain.com.
ns03.prod.mydomain.com. A 192.168.1.12
test.mydomain.com. NS ns03.test.mydomain.com.
ns03.test.mydomain.com. A 192.168.1.12
stageing.mydomain.com. NS ns03.stageing.mydomain.com.
ns03.stageing.mydomain.com. A 192.168.1.12
Any help is greatly appreciated!

By defining the NS records below the delegation, you have inadvertently combined zone delegation and records within those zones in the same zone file. Try the following simplified config to prevent these warnings:
