Well, let's put it this way. I have been monitoring the logs (/var/log/syslog in particular) as well as the separate logs I created (named.log and query.log). I'm getting a lot of "Connection refused" errors and a lot of "SERVFAIL" errors in named.log for various sites. I don't know if the quer

Based on that I'm pretty confident you can remove this as being a general DNS server issue. I would not attempt to even change the configuration in bind at this point as to not introduce more potential changes into your env as doing those tests will have mostly validated the DNS server is worki

If you’re hobbled by Windows (and ones five years past EOL), I prefer to fire up PowerShell and use Resolve-DnsName. Also include the -DnsOnly flag. Have you been looking at the BIND logs? Also, a BIND installation isn’t going to mess with resolv.conf. That’s typically managed by the distro’s net

I also suspect it's not BIND, but how the OS is going about resolving names. Test your running BIND by using dig (please, not nslookup) @127.0.0.1 [1] for domains you think you are having a problem with. Should it be @127.0.0.1 or should it be the machine's IP on which the DNS server is runnin

From the instance with bind running, can you query both your defined forwarders? Does it work consistently for a variety of domains? dig @1.1.1.1 isc.org dig @8.8.8.8 isc.org Yes, it does. The above two commands work as well as several other domains I tried, and the response has been immedia

I noted that it appears your internal network is 123.123.123.0/24.  This ip range is assigned globally to a Chinese ISP.  This may not be a good idea. I agree that using forwarding is not necessary and may introduce some issues. And yes, you need to stop using nslookup and use dig instead.
