/etc/resolv.conf contains:
nameserver 10.10.10.60
nameserver 10.10.10.1
.60 is my internal DNS, and .1 is the router.
On ".60" I've got:
forwarders {
71.252.0.12;
71.242.0.12;
};
in /etc/bind/named.conf.options. Those are Verizon's DNS servers. My
internal DNS server contains records for a few in-house servers; when .60
receives a request for a domain it doesn't know about, it passes the request
along to Verizon.
The bad DNS records are coming from Verizon; check it:
$ dig @71.252.0.12 vostro1400 ANY
