You should use BIND 9, disable lookups over IPv6 (OPTIONS="-u bind -4"
in /etc/defaults/bind9), and you need to wait a bit until the local
cache has been filled.

Add to the file /etc/bind/named.conf.local:

zone "mydomain.com" {
    type forward;
    forward only;
    forwarders { 192.168.0.2; 192.168.0.6; };
};

Of course you need to replace 'mydomain.com' as well as the 2 ip addresses in the 'forwarders'-line.

host -t txt -c CHAOS version.bind localhost

named - options {version “DNS daemon”;};

host -t txt -c CHAOS hostname.bind localhost
