caching problems with bind 9.4.3

You haven't provided very much detail (e.g: example domains, your  
nameservers, config files, versions, dig +trace output, etc), but from  
first glance it sounds like your secondaries are not updating until  
you restart named.

When you query a random nameserver there is a 50/50 chance (ok, well  
100/N - where N is the number of auth servers) that they will hit your  
secondary which, it sounds like, doesn't know about the domain yet...

Can you retest and dig against all of your auth servers, making sure  
that they all return correct data?

I had no shoes and wept.  Then I met a man who had no feet.  So I  
said, "Hey man, got any shoes you're not using?"
