Hello all. I am attempting to run BIND on fedora core 4 and having some issues.
I have added my zone file to /etc/named.conf.
Here is a copy of my named.conf...
options {
directory "/var/named";
version "xxx";
};
zone "thewildgoose.ca" {
type master;
file "data/named.xxxx.ca";
};
I am just trying to get forward dns working, I will take care of reverse after.
This is my zone file...
$TTL 1d
@ IN SOA xxxxx.ca. xxxx.xxxx.ca. (
2005081001;serial
3600 ;refresh
300 ;retry
3600000 ;expire
3600 ) ;minimum
IN NS ns1.xxxx.ca.
$ORIGIN xxxx.ca.
;A Records
ns1 IN A xx.xx.xx.xx
mail IN A 68.151.33.239
@ IN A 68.151.33.239
;CNAME Records
www IN CNAME ns1
webmail IN CNAME ns1
xxxx.ca. IN MX 1 mail
/var/log/messages seems to indicate named starts fine but i cant seem to connect to any of my hosts.
thanks for reading this and i look forward to any advice.
it really helps if we know the real domain and IP info for the zone

ok you are behind a nat.. so is port 53 both tcp/udp behind forwarded?
also can you do this on the server
nslookup thewildgoose.ca 127.0.0.1

I should of mentioned this before, I'm behind an IPCOP transparent proxy with just UDP 53 forwarded to my fedora box. I was under the impression that TCP 53 was reserved for seconday name server transfers, is that true?
the lookup was successful.
