shorten cache ttl?

Hello,

The default max-ncache-ttl is 10800 seconds (3 hours). max-ncache-ttl cannot exceed 7 days and will be silently truncated to 7 days if set to a greater value."

I was setting both to 0 and restarted BIND (I really stopped BIND 
completely and started it again). The nameservers for .com-delegations 
(e.g. a.gtld-servers.net) respond with the correct NS-records. My 
caching BIND does not.
