Paul,

Minor nit, just to be pedantic.

i now realize that both have to have a holddown timer, not just SERVFAIL.

ServFail means "something bad happened". There are 10 possible reasons listed in the extended errors draft:

And there are of course many, many more. So it _could_ be zone is declared/configured, but not loaded, but not necessarily.

This doesn't change your perfectly correct observation that a hold-down timer is needed for both Refused and ServFail.

Cheers,
