Ok! Thank you all! My router doesn't maintain a DNS cache, so it must be my IPS's fault. The last questions, if it's possible: what happens when my 'named' starts an iterative query? Does it arrive to the real root-server (first of all), or is it processed by some other cache-server on the path?

What tests should I do? If I query directly an external name-server (one of the root ones or 8.8.8.8 for example) I receive the correct response. For this reason I'm inclined to think that the router doesn't block packets to/from port 53. Why should it block packets generated by BIND9? 2013/1/12
