Forward by zone...

[Chimento, Douglas]

Fine, You win  
This is extactly what we have in PRODUCTION

options {
        directory "/var/named";
        forward only;
        forwarders {
                192.168.31.11; 192.168.31.80; 192.168.31.81;
        };
        check-names slave ignore;
        dump-file "/var/tmp/named_dump.db";
        statistics-file "/var/tmp/named.stats";
        memstatistics-file "/var/tmp/named.memstats";
        /*
         * If there is a firewall between you and nameservers you want
         * to talk to, you might need to uncomment the query-source
         * directive below.  Previous versions of BIND always asked
         * questions using port 53, but BIND 8.1 uses an unprivileged
         * port by default.
         */
        // query-source address * port 53;
};

zone "sweet.dude.com" {
        type forward;
        forward only;
        forwarders { 172.26.11.100; }; //SERVER B 
};

zone "dude.com" {
        type master;
        file "fwd/dude.com";
        also-notify { 192.168.31.89; 192.168.4.88; 192.168.4.89;
192.168.45.88; 192.168.45.89; };

No, this still isn't the real named.conf, because you don't
have quotes around any of your domain names.

I give up.  If you're not going to post the real named.conf
file, you can wait for someone else to help you.
