Anyone else having trouble with .gov DNS failing with edns-udp-size
set to 512?

You need an UDP size of at least 1220 for DNSSEC, see RFC 3226,
section 3.  A query that advertises a smaller buffer size is
non-compliant.  BIND will send such queries, but this is a
controversial feature.

I have "dnssec-enable no;" in my bind config.

It does not seem to have the intended effect.

Hmm. You're right. Bind won't disable DNSSEC unless you turn edns off
completely with:

server 0.0.0.0/0 {
  edns no;
};

Thanks for the info!
