Exactly why are you loading the above zone? Your DNS server is NOT the SOA
for dnsalias.net. Since I have never used dnsalias.net, I can only guess
that they would have a "delegation" record in their dnsalias.net zone that
delegates palmetto.dnsalias.net to your SOA server. IN other words,
shouldn;t you be loading palmetto.dnsalias.net?

You are specifying dnsalias.net in your zone definition (named.conf) above,
but loading the delegated zone (palmetto.dnsalias.net) without first
specifying the glue records for dnsalias.net. i.e. the TLD.

Personally, I do not see how this has ever worked. Again, I have never used
dnsalias.net, but I would think the zone name specified in named.conf should
match. i.e. palmetto.dnsalias.net.

I find "dig" to be a very useful tool in helping to debug DNS related
problems. Especially the trace feature. i.e.

dig +trace palmetto.dnsalias.net ns
