Security - it is better written and therefore has less security
problems.

It is better for dynamic DNS, but you didn't mention that, so I
assume you don't use it.

Your db.cache file looks odd. The quick and dirty fix to get
your boss of your back is to use "type forward" here (see also
"forward only" in DNS and BIND) and specify the currently
working DNS servers as the two forwarders.

Then you can go back and read DNS and BIND, and figure out the
"right way" of doing what you want!
