Do you have DNSSEC validation enabled? Because as per my email, it's a
DNSSEC problem.

After a bit of investigation, it seems that the problem is a missing
NSEC/NSEC3 record in the empty reply for:

$ dig +dnssec @165.112.4.230 ncbi.nlm.nih.gov ds

...since the "ncbi" zone is an unsigned child zone, there needs to be an
NSEC/NSEC3 record to prove the absence of the DS record, and have a
secure delegation to an unsigned child zone.


It sounds to me like DNSSEC validation is working as designed. If your DNS server's users are complaining about not being able to resolve something that fails validation, the question you need to ask is do your end-users really want you to do DNSSEC validation for them?

If you're asking for a workaround for when validation fails, there's not much point to doing the validation.
