Hi everyone,
I need an authoritative DNS server in my lan on dummy domains or subdomains of real domains. This allows me to test web applications in development.
The structure of my network is very classic:
Internet connection via a box of my ISP. It acts as a DHCP server and DNS cache server behind my ISP's DNS.
Three development workstations under GNU/Linux and a test server under FreeBSD. The entire network is in subnet 192.168.1.0/24
I want my DNS server to be located on my FreeBSD server (under FreeBSD 11.1-RELEASE with ZFS).
My DNS server must resolve requests for domains of my internal network that are on the BSD server (192.168.1.12) and forward other recursive requests to my ISP's box.
To achiev this I installed (with pkg) the maradns server which seems much easier to configure than a heavyweight like BIND and largely sufficient for my needs.
For now, if I place my BSD DNS server in /etc/resolv.conf on one of my workstations, I can resolve local DNS requests, but the recursion does not work.
But when I'm looking for a real domain:
Recursion is not available, and in the logs I see :
My maradns configuration files are written as follows (removing unnecessary comments) :
/usr/local/etc/maradns/mararc
/usr/local/etc/maradns/dwood3rc
Where does this malfunction come from, is it an error in the configuration files or something deeper?
If someone knows maradns well, I am interested in any information that would put me on the right track.

dig
gives the following results, first for one of my dummy domains:
