Hi Nick,
many thanks for your reply and your very detailed and exact explanation.
Based on your suggestion I realised that I don't get an Authoritative
Answer if I query @ the IP of eno1 interface but I get an AA flag for
@::1 and @127.0.0.1
Therefore you are right. It must query something else. So I looked at
the dns-tap logfile. But when I query at the following 4 IP addresses
192.168.241.9 2001:470:1f1b:2e4::241:9 ::1 and 127.0.0.1 I can find 8
times SOA entries, 4 times a query and 4 times the answer.
But not more. Maybe the server does not log its own query or my config
for dnstap is not perfect.
Next step was to query with +norecurse
I didn't get an answer at the IP of eno1 interface. Which is clear
because it's not authoritative.
As you mentioned the server tries to find the authoritative name server.
And yes there is one 188.21.75.154 sitting on the firewall. This bad guy
is doing a bad caching. It's only a caching server and obviously it
doesn't care about the TTL. Flushing the cache solves the issue.
Many thanks for your expertise.
Kind regards
Hans

I have 3 views:
view badcountry: based on geoip ( the name is self-explanatory )
view internal: all local area networks but not the loopback
interfaces for IPv4 and IPv6
it has only two response policy zones for drop and passthru , nothing
else
there I change for example queries for external NTP names to internal
IP addresses.
view foreveryone: as the name says, it has: match-clients { any ; };
in this view there are all my zones defined
Therefore queries for the same domain name SOA record on different IP
addresses goes to different views ( as expected )
The bind query log shows a query @::1 or @127.0.01 goes to view
foreveryone, with real IP goes to "internal"
So the query for the domain "yer.at" @192.168.241.9 will be logged in
view "internal" but the zone itself is defined in view foreveryone.
The TTL in the zone is defined as
21600 ; refresh (6 hours)
3600 ; retry (1 hour)
1209600 ; expire (2 weeks)
86400 ; minimum (1 day)
the nsupdate command is using a TTL for 1 day.
doing repeated dig's shows that TTL @real IP counts down but not so
@loopback interfaces
# dig +noall +answer yer.at SOA @::1
yer.at. 86400 IN SOA gw.yer.at. dns2008.yer.at.
29820 21600 3600 1209600 86400
# dig +noall +answer yer.at SOA @::1
yer.at. 86400 IN SOA gw.yer.at. dns2008.yer.at.
29820 21600 3600 1209600 86400
# dig +noall +answer yer.at SOA @192.168.241.9
yer.at. 13573 IN SOA gw.yer.at. dns2008.yer.at.
29817 21600 3600 1209600 86400
# dig +noall +answer yer.at SOA @192.168.241.9
yer.at. 13568 IN SOA gw.yer.at. dns2008.yer.at.
29817 21600 3600 1209600 86400
But even after the TTL reaches 0 and starts with a high value the
serial number is not updated.
It's still not clear for me where I can turn something in the
configuration.
Based on what you said it sounds like you don't have any "yer.at" zone
configured in the internal view, and so when the internal view
receives a query for "yer.at", it answers it using recursive
resolution. To do this it will first determine the authoritative name
servers for the domain, and then query one of those to get the answer.
In other words when you use dig to query 192.168.241.9 for "yer.at",
the answer you get may have come from a different authoritative name
server (e.g. not 192.168.241.9). That answer will be cached by the
internal view for the TTL duration provided in the authoritative response.
Based on your observation that repeated queries result in a decreasing
TTL, and then when the TTL expires, you still receive a 'stale'
response (but with the starting TTL), it sounds like the authoritative
name server that was chosen doesn't know that the zone has been
updated. As a test, please update the zone using nsupdate, then try
running this command:
dig yer.at +nssearch
This will query the SOA record on all of the authoritative name
servers for the domain. Hopefully this will show you which name
servers aren't getting updated when the zone data changes, and (if I'm
right) then we can troubleshoot that issue?
Nick.
