The named daemon works for only 1 or 2 minutes.

Question:

I have a RISC at AIX 3.2.3 that is configured to be a secondary DNS server 
to an HP acting as the primary server.

The named daemon works fine for a couple minutes before it stops to 
function. (i.e. name resolution hangs)  The daemon does not die, but 
I am getting many instances of the following error:

  0826-035 response from 'ip-address' is not in a valid form

If I restart the daemon, it starts working again, but within a couple 
of minutes, it stops working just as before.  

Response:

Your domain name in the /etc/named.boot file ended with a period.  We
removed the '.' but the original error persists.  When named is
working, it is very slow, and it still stops working after a couple
minutes. 

Response:

The domain name was misspelled in the local file.  When this was corrected,
the problem was solved.
