named not working

Hi
I have finsihed now reinstalling everything from the ground up, with Fedora Core 6 and ISPConfig. Created the DNS entries and websites with ISPConfig, and it looks OK to me - all the zone files are there etc.
I have 5 domains, 4 "real" with my external IP and 1 internal (my.local) with the internal IP of the box. I have a firewall with NAT translating all inbound traffic on apropriate ports to the internal IP of this box.

But:
1: named wil not resolve... this part worked last week before the reinstall, but now i have messed up somewhere. It will not resolve any of my hosts/domain. Neither have I succeeded when trying nslookup from the outside..

If you have any hints I will appreaciate it.
TIA

some further investigation

I checked with www.dnsreport.com for one of the domains (garnes.no) and it came back with "ns.makeitwork.as. has no A record." among other things. (ns.makeitwork.as is my new FC6 box which I am trying to set up now).

But - as far as I can see the file pri.garnes.no contains the same info as the file garnes.no.zone on my old RH9 box. Goes for the other domains as well.

Is there a difference between a bind installation and a bind-chroot installation that I have missed? Is my FC6 box working with the standard bind which has no files? How can I tell?

oh well - I'll try to figure it out somehow.

named is working but now I have "shared IP"...

Where can I find the logs to find out why this happens?

thanks,

1. I did follow the perfect setup, but I might have been a little "off track" regarding which packages to install in the first place.
What I have done now is to remove bind-chroot, cahcing-nameserver and bind. Then I reinstalled bind, caching-ameserver and bind-chroot.
The DNS part now seems to work.

3: See attached file. Looks OK?

4: Whan I try webmail.garnes.no or www.garnes.no (or any of the other sites) I get the "Shared IP" page - why?

Sorry to bother you but I hope I am learning.

I close this thread now

I'll close this thread now and post the "Shared IP" issue in a new thread.

Thanks for all help.
