I investigated /etc/named.d/forwarders.conf and the forwarding line there was empty of IPs but also *not* commented out. I commented the line out and 'rcnamed start' worked.
If you don't have a forwarders configuration, it means you are asking (and loading) the root servers, and that is not convenient. It is better to ask first your isp dns (or any other dns that works), and only if they fail, then query the root servers. Anyhow, the second time you need that name, the query will be local to your machine. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
