This is what I have but it still seems to go outside rather than looking 
at my name service. Maybe I have a db file misconfigured so it can't
respond. I just have SOA records in there at the moment could that
cause the problem? Also I am querying home.sjwcc.com whereas ultimately
it will be xxxx.home.sjwcc.com

Thanks
