I keep getting the following errors in my log, and I'm wondering what the problem could be:

Jul 11 12:01:27 www named[479]: sysquery: findns error (NXDOMAIN) on ns1.my-domain.com?
Jul 11 12:01:27 www named[479]: sysquery: findns error (NXDOMAIN) on ns2.my-domain.com?

This was posted on the BIND mailling list:

If all your queries are like that, check that you have a db.cache or
db.hints file. if not, create one:

dig @a.root-servers.net . ns > /etc/namedb/db.cache

If only for some queries, then those domains or RR´s just don´t exist.



The bind mailling list is here:

hmm...I do have a db.cache file in /etc/named
Guess I'll need to poke around a bit more.

Ok, I think I fixed it. I added A records for ns1 and ns2. I didn't see anything popping up in the log after that.
