>Also check /etc/resolv.conf and see what address(es) is/are listed as nameservers.
The resolv.conf file contains:
nameserver 127.0.0.53
search mydomain.net (where mydomain is my actual domain name and not the FQDN of the machine (i.e. "machine01.mydomain.net")).
This was entered by default as BIND was installed. I am wondering if the "namesever" should be the machine name on which the server is running and not 127.0.0.53 And I gather the 53 on the end has to do with the port on which it's listening. I'm not sure if it's correct that the 4th octet is substituted like that.
/etc/resolv.conf is not changed or set by BIND, as far as I know
it's got nothing to do with BIND at all.
IIRC Ubuntu is using 'systemd-resolved' (a local resolver with
cache) and 127.0.0.53 is the address it listens on, so you might
need to check that with 'resolvectl dns'.
Then check what is listening on port 53 (netstat -anp | egrep
":53.*LISTEN") on the server.
And also check what DNS servers your DHCP sets.
