To be honest, I'm not sure. I'm pretty newbie. I have set things up locally ok - that is, I'm reasonably certain named.conf is copascetic, and localhost.rev is setup properly. What I'm trying to do is manage a domain called passwedpawn.com and I'm not sure the zone file is properly setup. A dig yields some results, though usually just the SOA record: # dig passwedpawn.com ; <<>> DiG 8.3 <<>> passwedpawn.com ;; res options: init recurs defnam dnsrch ;; got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 4 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 1, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUERY SECTION: ;; passwedpawn.com, type = A, class = IN ;; AUTHORITY SECTION: passwedpawn.com. 33m10s IN SOA ns1.pho88.net. root.ns1.pho88.net.

But I'm pretty confused about what's working and what isn't right now; in particular with respect to nslookup. Here is a copy of the zone file just in case: $TTL 3600 passwedpawn.com. IN SOA ns1.pho88.net. admin.pho88.net.
