sysquery: no addrs found for root NS ()



hi

I run many name servers, and a few days ago errors such
as this started appearing in one of the log files for one
of the servers:

the server has been running flawlessly for almost 2 years, it
is a slave nameserver only so changes to it are made on the master
which is replicated to 2 other servers which are not experierncing
this problem.

i have googled around and most of the above errors seem to
mention the root name servers inside the ()'s. the weird thing
is this does not appear to be causing any noticible inpact on
the server or the people that use it, only producing these log entries.
It is a mail server as well, and there have been no mail errors
that I have seen, and I have recieved no complaints. and I have
noticed nothing unusual about the system.

i read in this FAQ that in bind 4.x it is normal, and to ignore
it. doesn't mention BIND 8:
http://www.intac.com/~cdp/cptd-faq/section6.html

the system is behind a firewall, as is the master name server
and both of the other slaves. this particular server is configured
with forwarders of the master name server, and the other local
slave nameserver(the 2nd slave is on a remote site). the local
slave is not configured with any forwarders, the master name
server is not configured with any forwarders either.

anyone else experience it? i suppose i could just filter it from
my logs but it sort of worries me that it *just* started a
few days ago after almost 2 years of normal behavior. I have
over 7 thousand log entries with these messages in the past 3 days
from the same server.

thanks

nate
