>20-Nov-2008 00:36:38.470 lame-servers: info: lame server resolving  
>'szi.szi.sv.gov.yu' (in 'szi.sv.gov.yu'?): 195.178.32.2#53

This message means that your DNS server sent a query for

     szi.szi.sv.gov.yu

and through recursion was directed to the nameserver at IP address

     195.178.32.2

But that nameserver has a problem - it is not authoritative for the
zone in question.  This is a problem with the remote name server.
The parent says that it is authoritative, but the server in question
is not authoritative.

I do not know if BIND caches lame server information.
