OT (maybe) DNS delagation on RH9

[dbrett]

I have run into something very strange I can't figure out how to solve.

I have a DNS server running RH9 and Bind 9.  The problem I am having is
with delegation.  At a basic level the delegation is working.  The problem
is delegation will only work when forwarding is turned off.

i.e.
Bind server has domain of "company.com"
it delegates "corp.company.com" to "ns.corp.company.com"

If forwarding is enabled all queries for "corp.company.com" go to the
forwarding servers.  If forwarding is turned off, it works as expected.

Below is the protion of named.conf and the zone file:

named.conf:
options {
directory "/var/named";
forwarders{ 207.181.89.2;
                207.181.89.3;
                207.181.101.5;
                207.181.101.4;};
allow-transfer{ 192.168.1.25; 192.168.1.100; 192.168.1.101;};
};
zone "." {
type hint;
file "named.ca";
};
zone "company.com"{
type slave;
masters {192.168.1.25;};
file "company.com";
};
...


zone file company.com

$ORIGIN .

                                43200      ; minimum (12 hours)
                                )
                        NS      ns02.company.com.
