When I check Unbound cache, it shows
unbound-control dump_cache|grep mine.intra file.mine.intra. 86387 IN A 10.3.3.50 msg file.mine.intra. IN A 33152 1 47 1 1 0 0 file.mine.intra. IN A 0 3 records about file.mine.intra are generated by one client query.

Second, create forward configuration in unbound.conf and restart Unbound, details are listed below. But Unbound is not able to response to client which run "dig file.mine.intra@IP-OF-UNBOUND" forward-zone: name: "mine.intra." forward-addr: 10.3.3.21 forward-addr: 10.3.3.22 forward-first: no (10.3.3.21 is dc1 of mine.intra, 10.3.3.22 is dc2 of mine.intra.) Finally, I use tcpdump -w to catch packages and save to a file to see that happens. Then using Wireshark to open capture file I get below result. Time source. Dest. Protocol. Length.

DNS 70 Standard query 0x8762 NS <ROOT> OPT Clearly Windows response the query but Unbound do not receive it and forward response to client, however it continually query ROOT DNS. BTW, these is also standard private domain forwarding settings (same format like above) in the same unbound.conf and works well, such as my-private-domain.com forwarded to a BIND server. Why this happens and how to make Unbound response client if query a host in xxx.intra? Thanks in advance. Adrian
