I have a problem getting SRV records to respond correctly from new BIND9 server.
It seems to respond as expected for every test I can hit is with except adding the "additional section" that includes the internet address of the srv hosts.
Windows nslookup utility
Windows server that is working correctly.
> set type=srv
> _sip._udp.subdomain.example.com
Server: servername.activedir.example.com
Address: 10.1.2.8
_sip._udp.subdomain.example.com SRV service location:
priority = 0
weight = 0
port = 5060
svr srvname = srv1.example.com
_sip._udp.subdomain.example.com SRV service location:
priority = 1
weight = 0
port = 5060
svr srvname = srv2.example.com
srv1.example.com internet address = 192.168.1.100
srv2.example.com internet address = 192.168.2.100
changed server to Bind9 that isn't working correctly
> server 10.1.2.17
Default Server: [10.1.2.17]
Address: 10.1.2.17
> _sip._udp.subdomain.example.com
Server: [10.1.2.17]
Address: 10.1.2.17
_sip._udp.subdomain.example.com SRV service location:
priority = 0
weight = 0
port = 5060
svr srvname = srv1.example.com
_sip._udp.subdomain.example.com SRV service location:
priority = 1
weight = 0
port = 5060
svr srvname = srv2.example.com
Dig utility for same lookups as nslookup above on Windows DNS server that is working correctly.

A simple dig for the hostname works immediately and both forward and reverse zones are loading.
