Resolving yahoo.com dies after 2 or 3 days

[wongman_eric at my-deja.com]

We used version 4.9.7 and got the same problem. We use a forwarder
which asks for addresses from the Internet on behalf of some other
slaves DNS servers on the inside of the network. We found that the
forwarder can resolve www.yahoo.com but not for the slave DNSs. Strange
though, the slaves can resolve all other addresses, except yahoo. After
restarting the slave DNS servers, it works for several minutes. After
that, the resolution will fail again.

The problem started from last week. Anyone can help? We noted that
www.yahoo.com is an alias for www.yahoo.akadns.net. Perhaps it is a
hint.

Thanks,

Eric
