Bind is not resolving domain name

Asked by ibell in BSD Unix, Miscellaneous Web Development, Computer Servers

Tags: Bind, 4.9.1

I am having a weird problem.  All of a sudden my DNS (which is acting as a secondary) is no longer resolving a particular domain name.  The primary has the domain set up, but the secondary returns SERVFAIL.  I haven't changed any settings - it all of a sudden started failing.  Is there a way to clear the cache or something?  

Update... it started working all of a sudden.  I went and deleted the zone file and restarted the server.  But can anyone give me an idea of what might have happened?  Is there some cache that got corrupted?Start Free Trial
