I set up my own DNS and connect to my ISP via ppp alias mode. The problem is that I cannot resolve my own domain name. When I run nslookup mydomain.com (for example) I get this messages: Server: clifton.mydomain.com [my DNS server] Address: 192.168.1.1 *** clifton.mydomain.com cannot find mydomain.com: Non-existant host/domain I cannot resolve my MX record either. But I can resolve the names/IPs of the servers defined in my DNS. Any ideas welcome Thanks. Configuration files attached. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------=_NextPart_000_389b79c4_5eb4a5b6$4a014feb Content-Type: text/plain; name="named.conf"; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="named.conf" // $FreeBSD: src/etc/namedb/named.conf,v 1.5.2.1 1999/08/29 14:19:30 peter Exp $ // // Refer to the named(8) man page for details.
