[ale] Question about bind server behavior.

One of my host providers changed the IP address of my server.  I went to 
the bind server that provides the master records and changed the IP 
address in the tables.  I restarted bind and then did a dig 
@<masterdnsserver> <serverwithnewaddress> and it reports the old IP 
address.  Is something caching that information?

I thought that if I provided a server to dig it asked the system 
directly.  I guess I need to go back to school.

Jim.
