view external: query (cache) denied on bind9/named

Question

Is this an attack? I get a lot of :

view external: query (cache) denied in the /var/log/messages

Solution

No that's no hack ;) Obviously Your DNS server isn't set up well. Try adding nameserver 127.0.0.1 to DNS server's /etc/resolv.conf and add your subnet (192.168.0.0/24) to /etc/bind/named.conf

acl internals { 127.0.0.0/8; 192.168.0.0/24; };

Please try to write understandable English.

Can you explain why nameserver 127.0.0.1 should fix it? And what will be the results in case of a web hosting server?
