lame-servers: error (FORMERR) resolving [something]

2013-01-08 Thread Daniele
Hi all. Sometimes I can't resolve some addresses and, in the logs, I can find the message in the title: lame-servers: error (FORMERR) resolving [something] (where `something` is the address I'm trying to resolve). What does it means? And how can I resolve this problem? Thank you!

Thank you. So it's not my responsibility to resolve the problem, right? The point is that, sometimes, I can't resolve an address because of this lame servers, and dig (for example) fails. Is it possible? 2013/1/8 Shane Kerr sh...@isc.org Daniele, On Tuesday, 2013-01-08 09:49:57 +0100,

Name resolution fails if not forwarding

If I use BIND9 forwarding all the queries not belonging to my local zones, it works. But if I don't forward those queries, `dig` sometimes (and this is weird) fails (with connection timed out; no servers could be reached) and the logs are full of lame server, FORMERR. Why?
