Yes, the domain is registered on the internet, as are the DNS servers, but
for some reason, only the name servers show up on NSI and elsewhere, but no
other hosts are resolvable. I can ping the IP's from the outside, and the
names from the inside.

Here's my name server:  ns1.whtech.com (209.172.89.10)
				ns2.whtech.com (209.172.89.11)
I'm trying to resolve:  www.whtech.com

I'm thinking there is something wrong with the bind config, but it doesn't
make sense, because the same db file was working fine on the old DNS server
(I changed the NS pointers, etc.).
