I compiled bind9 in its own directory, but not installed.

When I run it "by itself" I get :

vjofn# ./bin/dig/dig +trace -x 204.107.90.128

And when I force it to the local server (only?) 

vjofn# ./bin/dig/dig @127.0.0.1 +trace -x 204.107.90.128

	If I run it w/o the +trace :

vjofn# ./bin/dig/dig @127.0.0.1  -x 204.107.90.128

; <<>> DiG 9.3.1 <<>> @127.0.0.1 -x 204.107.90.128
; (1 server found)
;; global options:  printcmd
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached




	Why does it look like its getting the answer when I trace, but
not as normal.

		Thanks, Tuc
