Kevin, Thanks for the good ideas. Here is what I am seeing based on your recommendations:
1. Zone has expired (to confirm: check logs) No errors or notices regarding the zone being expired. 2. Corrupted/truncated journal file (to confirm: check logs, or, shut down gracefully, delete journal and start up again) I've shut down BIND, removed all files under the slave directory, and restarted BIND - no help. Other zones that are delegated from the same server are populated. 3. www.blah.com is a delegation in your slave copy of the zone, and the delegated nameservers are all returning SERVFAIL, are lame, give bogus answers, some combination of the above, etc. (to confirm: do the lookup non-recursively, or a zone transfer of blah.com; if www.blah.com shows as a delegation, query the delegated nameservers directly and see what they return) I am able to query the master directly, without issue as well as perform a zone transfer (though I get an error, ";; communications error to 10.x.x.x#53: connection reset"). I'm assuming that this is due to the fact that the response is greater than 512 bytes perhaps.
