Please when you get a chance take a look at them. I used the how-to-DNS to generate them. I also got the named.ca from rs.internic.net. Please let me know what I have done wrong. I don't have DIG. NSLOOKUP is working just fine and I have removed the /etc/reslov.conf file. See below: Server: ether.tidalwave.com Address: 140.174.117.253 *** Request to ether.tidalwave.com timed-out > hal.com Server: ether.tidalwave.com Address: 140.174.117.253 Non-authoritative answer: Name: hal.com Address: 192.88.244.33 > fai.com Server: ether.tidalwave.com Address: 140.174.117.253 *** Request to ether.tidalwave.com timed-out > whitehouse.gov Server: ether.tidalwave.com Address: 140.174.117.253 Name: whitehouse.gov Address: 198.137.240.100 > veritas.com Server: ether.tidalwave.com Address: 140.174.117.253 I will get the O'Reilly's DNS & BIND book tomorrow.
