No dude, I think you are saying right. I know your problem, I am just not sure
of the solution. Have you installed any packages lately? If so which ones. Try
reconfiguring or reinstalling bind. Try bindconfig and set it up as a caching
only nameserver. Also make sure the perms on your /etc/resolv.conf are like
this:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 70 Oct 4 08:08 /etc/resolv.conf
Next I would tail -f some various log files, hell try em all while you attempt
to get some name service. I must say that I am intruiged what may be the
cause. What version of bind are you running. Did you check bugs.debian.org for
a possible bug in there. There is twwo parts of bind you know, the client side
is called the resolver (herein lies your problem I believe) This is why I say
to really eye-fsck bind. Hope this helps.
