Hi All, 

I am having problem with Bind query, but not sure is it client error or server 
error. 
Below is the server details.

Server running FreeBSD 8.1
Bind 9.7.0-P3

options {
        query-source address * port *;
       use-v4-udp-ports { range 2048 65535; };
       recursive-clients       20000;
       recursion yes;

       allow-recursion {
               any;
       };

       allow-query {
               any;
       };

       allow-transfer {
               trusted;
       };
}

When I try to dig the domain name, received SERVFAIL status but when +trace 
initiate, it seem fine

On the other hand, we notice that the NS record seem like no DNS service 
running, could it be client side or server side problem?
