Hello! I installed BIND and configured via Webmin in the following manner: Code: $ttl 38400 sohipitmhz.com. IN SOA ns1.sohipitmhz.com. justin\.bull.c3studios.ca. ( 1213586206 10800 3600 604800 38400 ) sohipitmhz.com. IN NS ns1.sohipitmhz.com. sohipitmhz.com. IN NS ns2.sohipitmhz.com. ns1.sohipitmhz.com. IN A 24.80.213.124 ns2.sohipitmhz.com. IN A 24.80.213.124 sohipitmhz.com. IN A 24.80.213.124 localhost.sohipitmhz.com. IN A 127.0.0.1 sohipitmhz.com. IN MX 0 sohipitmhz.com. www IN CNAME sohipitmhz.com. mail IN CNAME sohipitmhz.com. bullbox IN A 24.80.213.124 and Code: options { directory "/etc"; pid-file "/var/run/named/named.pid"; }; zone "." { type hint; file "/etc/db.cache"; }; zone "sohipitmhz.com" { type master; file "/var/named/sohipitmhz.com.hosts"; }; I have BIND running with chroot (/var/named/chroot/) and LAMP. The Postfix hasn't been properly configured yet. Here are the details: Hostname: bullbox.sohipitmhz.com IP Address: 24.80.213.124 Domain: sohipitmhz.com So for some reason it doesn't work! Am I missing something in my configuration? Both nameservers are the same box. Thank you!
You need a glue record for sohipitmhz.com: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_Name_System#Circular_dependencies_and_glue_records
So the modified configuration would look like this? Code: $ttl 38400 sohipitmhz.com. IN SOA ns1.sohipitmhz.com. justin\.bull.c3studios.ca. ( 1213586206 10800 3600 604800 38400 ) sohipitmhz.com. IN NS ns1.sohipitmhz.com. sohipitmhz.com. IN NS ns2.sohipitmhz.com. ns1.sohipitmhz.com. IN A 24.80.213.124 ns2.sohipitmhz.com. IN A 24.80.213.124 sohipitmhz.com. IN A 24.80.213.124 localhost.sohipitmhz.com. IN A 127.0.0.1 sohipitmhz.com. IN MX 0 sohipitmhz.com. www IN CNAME sohipitmhz.com. mail IN CNAME sohipitmhz.com. bullbox IN A 24.80.213.124 [b]ns1 IN A 192.168.1.133 // LAN IP ns2 IN A 192.168.1.133 // LAN IP[/b] Sorry, searching for definitive instructions of glue records has turned up mixed results.
No, you must ask your registrar to set up glue records for your domain. That's nothing you can do yourself.
