I am a Wisp admin and I have just configured a couple of new Bind9 servers.
They will resolve using dig google.com @9x.1xx.104.14
I am having some trouble getting them to answer themselves on 127.0.0.1 for example:

[root@ns4 named]# dig google.com @127.0.0.1 +trace

; <<>> DiG 9.3.6-P1-RedHat-9.3.6-20.P1.el5 <<>> google.com @127.0.0.1 +trace
;; global options:  printcmd
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached
[root@ns4 named]#

Here is an my config:
//
// named.conf for Red Hat caching-nameserver
//
controls {
    inet 127.0.0.1 allow { localhost; } keys { rndckey; rndc-key; };
};

options {
    directory "/var/named";
        dump-file "/var/named/data/cache_dump.db";
        statistics-file "/var/named/data/named_stats.txt";
        /*
         * If there is a firewall between you and nameservers you want
         * to talk to, you might need to uncomment the query-source
         * directive below.  Previous versions of BIND always asked
         * questions using port 53, but BIND 8.1 uses an unprivileged
         * port by default.
         */
         // query-source address * port 53;
version "Surely you must be joking";
        notify yes;
    allow-recursion {
        127.0.0.1;
        9x.1xx.104.0/22;
        9x.1xx.108.0/23;
        };
        allow-transfer { 9x.1xx.104.22;
                       };
    listen-on {
        9x.1xx.104.14;
        };
 };
//
logging {
    channel my_syslog {
        syslog kern;
        severity debug;
        };
    channel my_file {
        file "/var/named/chroot/var/named/log.msgs";
        severity dynamic;
        print-category yes;
        };
    category unmatched {
        null;
        };
    category queries {
        my_file;
        };
    category lame-servers {
        null;
        };
    category general {
        default_syslog;
        };
        };


// a caching only nameserver config
//

zone "." IN {
        type hint;
        file "root.servers";
};



zone "104.1xx.9x.in-addr.arpa" {
    type master;
    file "/var/named/9x.1xx.104.rev";
    allow-transfer {
        9x.1xx.104.22;
        };
    };
zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" {
    type master;
    file "/var/named/127.0.0.rev";
    };
zone "localdomain" {
    type master;
    file "/var/named/localdomain.hosts";
    };
zone "localhost" {
    type master;
    file "/var/named/localhost.hosts";
    };
key rndc-key {
    algorithm hmac-md5;
    secret "wh6DFiuNGJHzHwvNTy8JEA==";
    };

Here is my resolv.conf :
nameserver 127.0.0.1
nameserver 9x.1xx.104.14

Not sure what I broke but it seems to work on some of my older servers.
Thanks for any help.
