Russ, I really do not have the experience with the various tools to answer that question. that bind ws running and could resolve some fqdns, but failed on the centos ntp pool fqdn. If I manually set the time with the 'date' command, then those lookups work. This indicates that there is something in the response that my system, with its bad date/time did not like (too far in the future?). But why was it ok with other look ups? So I see two ways to 'fix' this. Even though this system is a nameserver, put a second DNS being my ISP's DNS server. Then MAYBE it will work (have not tested this yet, if this is a time/stamp issue the 1st, ie localhost, DNS response should still fail). Get chrony to set the time based on the last boot time. I have this working on F22, but not on C7. So it SHOULD be a config problem...
