Yes, the quoted text is from the BitFolk Panel noting that although
that part is where you tell BitFolk where to delegate the zone to,
you do actually have to have a DNS server running on that host or
hosts, and authoritative for the zone in question.

So in the all-knowing-dns case, you would need to be running it on
each host you delegate the zone to.
