[Unbound-users] problems resolving some sites

Hello,

I am trying to understand a problem on resolving a small fraction of
sites from unbound. The server is a Debian Squeeze running behind a
Firewall. 53/tcp, icmp and full udp are open on the box to the
outside. Unbound is stock Debian (1.4.6-1). When i try to resolve this
host for instance, it fails: ice.grid.kiae.ru whereas bind works.

Here is my configuration, I would be grateful if someone could point
me to the problem:

server:
	verbosity: 1
	num-threads: 2
	interface: 0.0.0.0
	interface: ::0
	interface-automatic: yes
        access-control: 127.0.0.0/8 allow
        access-control: ::1 allow
        access-control: ::ffff:127.0.0.1 allow
        access-control: xxxxxxx allow (where xxxx is our public range)
        access-control: 0.0.0.0/0 refuse
        access-control: ::0/0 refuse
	chroot: ""
	username: "unbound"
	directory: "/etc/unbound"
	logfile: "/var/log/unbound/unbound.log"
	pidfile: "/var/run/unbound.pid"
	root-hints: "/etc/unbound/named.cache"
	harden-glue: yes
	harden-dnssec-stripped: yes
	harden-referral-path: yes
	use-caps-for-id: yes
	unwanted-reply-threshold: 10000000
	dlv-anchor-file: "/etc/unbound/dlv.isc.org.key"
	val-clean-additional: yes
	val-permissive-mode: no
python:

remote-control:
	control-enable: yes
	control-interface: 127.0.0.1
	control-interface: ::1
	control-port: 953
	server-key-file: "/etc/unbound/unbound_server.key"
	server-cert-file: "/etc/unbound/unbound_server.pem"
	control-key-file: "/etc/unbound/unbound_control.key"
	control-cert-file: "/etc/unbound/unbound_control.pem"

This is a paste of the queries using first the unbound server which
fails, then the bind one which works:

~ dig any ice.grid.kiae.ru @xxxx
