(Sub)-Domain forwarding problems

Your server believes itself to be authoritative for foo.com and  
everything under it, and therefore there is no need to forward. To  
resolve this, add delegation records to foo.com:

lan1.foo.com.  NS  server.10.3.1.12.
lan2.foo.com.  NS  server.10.3.1.12.

Obviously, those names are all fake, including the names on the right  
hand side. Replace them with correct values. Once you have these in  
place, you may even find you don't need the forward zones at all - the  
server may be able to follow the delegations down the namespace tree  
as indicated. (You may need to add a "forwarders {};" line to your  
foo.com zone statement, though.)
