I am Good thing you included it. More people should when asking questions like this :) There are two obvious errors plus some wierd formatting that may have come from your mailer. Both errors are in the SOA record. First, you are missing the contact mailing address, ginven a contact of hostmaster you want the start of the SOA to read dcoisp.net. IN SOA mail.dcoisp.net. hostmaster.mail.dcoisp.net. ( The mail contact plus that trailing left paren need to be added. The left paren starts the serial number, refresh etc.. section and are required for the record to span more than one line. Your complete SOA should look like dcoisp.net. IN SOA mail.dcoisp.net. hostmaster.mail.dcoisp.net. ( 1 10800 3600 604800 86400 ) Don't forget the closing paren after the minimum TTL :) You should also think about changing your serial number to YYYYMMDDXX format where the XX is replaced by a 2 digit serial number (leading 0 for 1-9). Forgetting to change the serial number is a common mistake and easier to catch if you use this numbering technique.
