Hi Alex,
I think the problem is with my suggestion to use bind forwarding..
basically bind is stripping off the authorative answer bit in the
reply.. this causes the recursor to go into a loop chasing the authority
server which again returns a non-authoritve answer with itself as the
authority again. I'm not sure if this can be fixed without hacking the
bind src, so maybe it wasn't such a great suggestion in the first place.
Basically I think if bind was returning authorative answers it would
work, but I can't see any way to make that happen in the bind
configuration.
