Hi Guys,

I have successfully installed bind 9 but I am having some issues with doing
a nslookup from my internal network.

>nslookup google.com
Server: shinda.chamkila.org
Address: 192.168.0.5

DNS request timed out.
         timeout was 2 seconds.
*** Request to shinda.chamkila.org timed-out

Then when I try it a couple of more times it works just fine. Is this a
configuration issue? My internal addresses come up really quickly but it
times out for external addresses a few times before it actually works. The
following are my config files for named:

Any suggestions or comments would be grately appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Simran H.
