Hi again, I think that I have found the problem, it doesn't like 
127.0.0.1 in /etc/resolv.conf.

if /etc/resolv.conf contains
nameserver 127.0.0.1
search home.lan

host -t SRV _ldap._tcp.home.lan.
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

if you change /etc/resolv.conf to contain the servers ipaddress
nameserver 192.168.0.5
search home.lan

host -t SRV _ldap._tcp.home.lan.
_ldap._tcp.home.lan has SRV record 0 100 389 hda.home.lan.

host -t SRV _kerberos._udp.home.lan.
_kerberos._udp.home.lan has SRV record 0 100 88 hda.home.lan.

host -t A hda.home.lan.
hda.home.lan has address 192.168.0.5

Why doesn't 127.0.0.1 work in /etc/resolv.conf it does with bind9
