By default BIND 9 expects to be on the Internet, it has a built
in list of hints for the root name-server, and so has an implied
'zone "." { type hint; }' entry.

You could place a 'zone "." { type master ; }' entry.

Rather than alter BIND you could also check your operating
system resolver settings - on mine this would be timeout and
attempts in /etc/resolv.conf but YMMV.

Ultimately perhaps you should test online, I hate it when a page
is broken because of broken advert markup, guess I want quality
assurance about broken advertising markup in case a cracker
places an "advert" with a broker.
