Subject: Re: Setting Up Bind9 Test
Ok, firewall involved blocking outbound dns queries? Something upstream
blocking dns queries?

Quick test is resolve against 68.2.16.30 (cox's dns server I think is
still open) or any general dns server outside. Make sure you can
actually perform a dns looking outside (allow tcp/udp port 53 traffic to
dst of *). Unless you have a managed firewall with anal security,
typically cheap little bugger firewalls won't block this by default.

Other than that, all I can say is send me all your named.conf files
offlist and I can try and load it up on one of my working systems to see
what's up with that.

I'm grasping at straws now unless your version is just plain broken...
