rDNS looping problem


I have a server that has been deligated dns control by my ISP.

When I do an rDNS lookup, if the record exists it eventually gets to my server and reports every thing fine. The problem is that if the rDNS record does not exist on my name server, my name server tries to pass the query along to the root servers, the root servers then pass it back to my name servers which causes a loop.

Is there any way I can tell bind to not pass along the query if the record does not exist on my name servers? I want the query to stop at my name servers.

I'm running Bind 9
