Hello, :)

I was experimenting with BIND (8.3.3) on FreeBSD. I got everything pretty
much set up properly. Then I came up with the idea to allow outside queries
for my own domain names, but to disallow outsiders to use my name servers to
resolve the world. So, I did this:

zone "." {
 type hint;
 file "named.root";
 allow-query { trusted; };
};

I thought that would only allow myself (localhost and a few others are in
the "trusted" acl) to query the world, but prevent others from doing so, via
my name servers. Alas, BIND disagrees with my logic. It reports:

'allow-query' option for non-{master,slave,stub} zone ''
zone '.' did not validate, skipping

Hmm, there's gotta be a way to only let outsiders use my name servers to
resolve my own domains. Has anyone any ideas?

Thanks!

- Mark
