telnet App not recursive

[Quadri, Jay]

 I do have a design (below) of which I am very proud off, the only problem
is that it does not work correctly.  It works perfectly if I remove the
forwarders.  Leaving just the Internet forwarder results in annika not been
able to resolve other intra.net sites within the cloud.  Forwarding is a
bitch, it affects other Internal lookups.   The root server (intra.net) acts
as a slave to all *.intra.net servers and vice visa,I can see that all slave
zone files does get transferred on all DNS servers.  Any insights?

[root at Annika /root]# more /etc/named.conf
options {
        directory "/var/named";
//       query-source address * port 53;

 forwarders      {
  195.44.11.45 ;
  148.185.41.13 ;
//195.44.11.45 is the internet dns
//142.186.43.18 is another intranet dns server (zone=isops.co.uk)

 } ;
