Oh, I forgot to mention that all master zones have "notify explicit;" set.
(Is there a global setting for that?)

So in theory they should not bother looking up root stuff.

Err...by default? How do I switch this off?

These BIND servers are really strictly internal, no outside routing, no
forwarders, they are being used for loading, auto-signing and then
serving-to-internal-slaves a handful of master zones, everything based on
local info. They can't look anything up and yet they work. So well...maybe
those lookups are really not needed?

Cheers,
        Elmar.
