So I take it this server has one of the IPs listed in resolv.conf?
Assuming that is the case, the problem is that this host is a dns server running "named". Named can run in one (or more) of several modes :
1. DNS master - holds the master copy of all hosts and objects it resolves
2. DnS slave - holds a copy which it regularly fetches from the master
3. DNS resolver & cache - resolves and caches answers from anither DNS server - this is called "forwarding".
What is your intention for this service?
