I'm sure there's a good, simple reason for this, I just can't seem to find the
answer searching on the Internet.
Why does named perform a lookup for the A record when its IP is returned with
the CNAME in the first answer?
Using dig, I find play.google.com is a CNAME for play.l.google.com.
When asked to resolve it, named will first look for play.google.com. The result
will include the CNAME and the IP of the A record.
Named then makes a second request to resolve the A record.
Thanks in advance,
Steve.
