You did not include the output of dig.

What's the IP address of the name server where you have these 
zones?  What nameservers are listed in the /etc/resolv.conf file?  If 
the nameserver is running on the computer where you are doing the 
query, you should only have nameserver 127.0.0.1 in your /etc/resolv.conf file.
