These LAN have a BIND9 service to provide name resolving and caching for
internet access, and I want to intercept the .local domain to give a
NXDOMAIN response. The internet ISP returns positive values for .local
queries, and I need that LAN clients receive NXDOMAIN instead.</pre>

You may find some functions of systems not working any more.
Obviously it is up to you in the end.<br>

values for SOA and A RRs? How should be the content of the zone sheet?
