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. > Additionally you have DNSSEC validation and/or managed keys for the > root enabled. 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?
