Problem with BIND 9.1.3 and multiple domains.

Is there ANY chance we can put a question before anyone joins the
mailing list or posts to the newsgroup - 'do you intend to ever send
incomplete or inaccurate information with regards to a DNS problem you
ask resolved?' A 'No' answer should disqualify that person from ever
participating, IMHO.

Here's why, in case you don't see it. It is IMPOSSIBLE to tell what
might be wrong without knowing where to look. At first, I'd guess that
the zone file for your .net domain doesn't have the appropriate A RRs.
But since I don't have any chance of verifying this theory, I have to
create this completely unneccessary traffic on the Internet.

Tell us what your real domain names are, and we might be able to help.
Unless and until you do, all we can do is guess.
