named accessing IP addresses outside its domain

I have a named running on a subnetwork which has the addresses of all
the PCs in its domain. How do I get qnx to lookup for addresses on
another name server. At present my resolv.conf is

domain rteRegion.ie
lookup file bind
nameserver aaa.bbb.aaa.ccc
nameserver aaa.bbb.ddd.eee

When I run voyager with resolv.conf in that order I get DNS Failure. I
can access my defined sites by their IP address or hostname

When I set the resolv.conf to
domain rteRegion.ie
lookup file bind
nameserver aaa.bbb.ddd.eee
nameserver aaa.bbb.aaa.ccc

When I run voyager with resolv.conf in this order I can acces these
sites. I cannot access my defined sites by their IP address or hostname

Any ideas?

the dns server aaa.bbb.aaa.ccc is misconfigured.
you probably want to get a copy of my cousin’s dns book:
