System: NetBSD kolvir.arlington.ma.us 1.6_BETA5 NetBSD 1.6_BETA5 (KOLVIR-$Revision: 1.47 $) #2: Sat Aug 10 09:36:48 EDT 2002 jtk@kolvir.arlington.ma.us:/usr/u4/sandbox/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/KOLVIR i386

>Description:
I run a caching named for most zones, with forwarding via my ISP's name
servers:

forwarders {
204.127.202.19 ;
216.148.227.79 ;
};

Running 'dig carols.net a' returns a bogus record from my ISP's
name servers stating that
the root name server's server is a host name "ns"
(clearly a config error on the part of the carols.net server admins).

However, this return packet pollutes the cache of my BIND server.
I see the same behaviour with 1.5.3's bind and the pkgsrc BIND (which
is named 8.3.3-REL).

>How-To-Repeat:
	config named with a forwarders clause.
	dig carols.net ns
	dig . ns
