Problem:  After years of stable behavior, Slave intermittently not resolving
 addresses a few months ago, and then completely stopped working
 yesterday. We also noticed that the Slave will not update its files
 upon notify from the Master.

Action Taken: Replaced Slave with a clone of the Master instance.  That new
 Master does properly resolve names inside our zone, whether
 the requestor is on our LAN our one of our trusted servers out
 on the internet that are allowed to see internal names.

 HOWEVER, that new master instance will not resolve names in
 zones other than ours.  We're working around this by
 forwarding these failed lookups to our original master -
 that is working fine.

 So, we have two masters with the same configuration and
 tables, but one resolves outside names and one does not.
 We've tried disabling DNSSEC validation and opening up our
 firewalls and got nowhere.

 When the lookups outside our zone fail, we see this:

So ... could this be Comcast munging about in the DNS traffic?


looks like exactly it. 


  Other suggestions
of where to look appreciated as well ...

(We have a fair bit of other logging data to be examined, I just didn't want to
spam the whole list with all that ...)
