Has anyone experenced the following?

shell:~$ nslookup yahoo.com 203.101.21.98
*** Can't find server name for address 203.101.21.98: Non-existent
host/domain
*** Default servers are not available
shell:~$


I can do a DNS lookup from any machine, says no DNS server there.. But

shell:~$ nslookup yahoo.com 127.0.0.1
Server:  LOCALHOST
Address:  127.0.0.1

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:    yahoo.com
Addresses:  204.71.200.243, 204.71.200.245

If i do a DNS lookup using local host it works fine.. My setup was working,
for about 2 weeks, then died one day, i looked via all configs etc, nothing
had changed and everything was right.  I am stumped to why this has
happened.  I recompiled the bind server, worked for a few hours then it
happened again.  Has anyone had this before? Knows a solution?
