max-ncache-ttl sets the maximum time (in seconds) for which the server will 
cache negative (NXDOMAIN) answers (positives are defined by max-cache-ttl ). 
The default max-ncache-ttl is 10800 seconds (3 hours). max-ncache-ttl cannot 
exceed 7 days and will be silently truncated to 7 days if set to a greater 
value. This statement may be used in view or a global options clause.

Subject: what does "max-ncache-ttl 0;" mean? 

man pages for named.conf says "max-ncache-ttl <integer>" and only talks about 
default values and max values - no mention of minimum-value. 

Does "max-ncache-ttl 0;" mean never cache negative queries (queries resulting 
in NXDOMAIN) or does it mean cache negative queries forever? 

Too lazy to test this option or look bind code :), hence posting here - 
apologies in advance..!!
