Well, can you actually look up the name "localhost"? If you do a "dig
localhost", what is in the Authority Section of the response? Is there anything
in the Additional Section, and if so, what? Can you look up
ns.bildungswerk-clp.de directly? If you dump your cache (how you do this
depends on what version of BIND you are running), is there an A record for
ns.bildungswerk-clp.de?
