Most of all thanks to Andy Townsend.
Andy's answer that my problem was in my zone file was right on.... There
was a missing newline
on one of the very early lines in the file.... Once that was corrected, I
was back to getting authoritative
answers from DNS. It also cleared up any sendmail problems I was
having....
The sendmail problem was as follows:
mailx -v <user>@<machinename>
Name lookup failure... message queued for delivery....
Now, after fixing the zone file, it works like a charm....
Thanks,

Subject: Non-Authoritative DNS lookups
Hi List,
Having a problem with DNS. Anyone had experience with this??
Every time I do a lookup of a node, I get a reply with the
Non-authoritative answer
before it.... I think this is causing some problems with sendmail, so if
anyone knows how
to eliminate the Non-authoritative answer, I would appreciate any input.
I've looked this up in the O'Reilly DNs and Bind book. It says it's normal
when the answer is
read from cache. How would I clear the cache to check that????
Thanks,
Mark Gosselin
