But in response to the actual question... what you want to do is not possible in BIND zone configs as you can't create a negative zone (that I'm aware of).
However in later versions of BIND9 you can create a local RPZ zone which you could then use to send back a negative response for .local http://www.isc.org/software/rpz http://jpmens.net/2011/04/26/how-to-configure-your-bind-resolvers-to-lie-using-response-policy-zones-rpz/ On 19 May 2013 21:22, Steven Carr <sjc...@gmail.com> wrote: > Why are you forwarding queries to the ISP?
