Folks,

I'm trying to understand the behavior of a single zone that I'm forwarding queries for.

Essentially, when I do a dig fwd.zone.net SOA the request seems to be properly forwarded to the nameservers in the forward statement. I've verified this with tcpdump running on my primary nameserver.

But when I attempt to resolve a host record in fwd.zone.net it doesn't seem to be forwarded to the proper nameservers and instead goes out to the Internet.

I've verified that the host record exists on the remote nameservers to which I am forwarding by looking up the record directly from the remote nameserver.

This is what the forwarded zone's configuration looks like:

// zone: fwd.zone.net
zone "fwd.zone.net"
{
    type forward;
    forwarders { <public ip withheld>; <public ip withheld>; };
};

Am I correct in understanding that each and every query for any record in the forwarded zone should be forwarded to the specified nameservers and not go out to the Internet? BTW, I'm running BIND 9.3.5-P1.

Regards,

Mark
