BIND Woes

[Mike Dwiggins]

Again Thanks Rick,

That did the trick.  The gui version set up the .conf file slightly 
differently.

I can go to /var/log/messages and see the service starting and the 
notifies being transmitted for the zone.

nslookup from within the server resolves the FQDN no problem.

My SOA and A records are not propagating properly but thats a problem 
between me and Network Solutions.

Again Thanks much.
