Looks like things should have been working with this configuration - was it not? Not sure where that last entry in the routing table came from though.

Go figure on why this is hit and mis with NM or named
I suspect that the problem's with NM rather than named. If it happens again, try pinging by IP address rather than by name. If IPs don't work, it's nothing to with named.
