Recursive DNS problem

Hello all,

I am running Bind 9.7.1-p2 as recursive dns. I encountered this problem with
the domain hsbc.com.bd. When I dig hsbc.com.bd, it gives me a connection
timed out response.

 #dig hsbc.com.bd

; <<>> DiG 9.7.1-P2 <<>> hsbc.com.bd
;; global options: +cmd
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

But when I cleared my cache thru rndc flush, I then have a response and
solved the problem:

#dig hsbc.com.bd

; <<>> DiG 9.7.1-P2 <<>> hsbc.com.bd
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:

I digged further about the problem as to what causes it. I found out that if
I clear the cache and then dig first the ns record(s) of com.bd, before I
dig hsbc.com.bd, I will be able to replicate the problem.

What bothered me is what is in com.bd that blocks the response from
hsbc.com.bd? Please I need your inputs.


Thanks,

Bangla
