Well, in a way that's good. You now know that your network is fine,
that your queries are reaching the nameserver, and that for some reason
the nameserver is returning "REFUSED". You have taken your local
caching nameserver out of the equation.

Progress! :-)

It is barely possible that the nameserver is refusing to answer queries
that arrive over IPv6 transport. If you control that nameserver you
should certainly check its configuration. You could also see what
happens when you query the same nameserver on its IPv4 address or (if
it has one) its non-link-local address.

Regards, K.
