nslookup resolved the .local addresses?  That's surprising and might

I'm using inside my network a .local domain which is defined in a ZONE

Actually, that *IS* a problem.  You should not be doing that.  That is
quite likely the source of all your problems.  That domain name is
reserved for a specific purpose and putting it in DNS will cause
conflicts.

Sorry, you're telling *BULLSHIT*; the TLD .local is exactly reserved for
this purpose ...

It is not!  Try reading this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.local

Microsoft at one point suggested using it, but they have since recanted.

According to https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6762 .local is reserved for MDNS use and is not supposed to be DNS resolvable.
