I have two DNS servers both running Debian Linux 7.2.0, BIND 9.8.4 in a private LAN. I set up an unregistered domain to see how things would run. When I run dig on the domain just to see if it will resolve, I get this error:
; <<>> DiG 9.8.4-rpz2+rl005.12-P1 <<>> jeffdiss.org ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: SERVFAIL, id: 22495 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;jeffdiss.org.

I'm running dig from the primary DNS server itself and I'm thinking I should be able to get an answer for jeffdiss.org. Can someone point me in the right direction? Jeff
