master seeds our internal slaves with our internal zone.
no clients can do lookups via the master neither towards the zone nor
recursive.
all the slave servers are recursive and acts as a slave for out internal
zone
there's not authorative server in the zone
I don't see it how the server config would affect this since this seams to
be a client side issue.
