I am giving the command 'dig jzeller.com any' and ' dig mail.jzeller.com'
To be honest this is my first time messing with bind and setting up an internal DNS server, so im not exactly sure where I would turn off recursion or increment the SOA ID
I'll post a few config files I have changed.
/etc/bind/named.conf.options
Quote:
options {
directory "/var/cache/bind";
// from bind 9:
// [fetch-glue] is obsolete. In BIND 8, fetch-glue yes caused the
// server to attempt to fetch glue resource records it didn't have
// when constructing the additional data section of a response.
// This is now considered a bad idea and BIND 9 never does it.
fetch-glue no;
// If there is a firewall between you and nameservers you want
// to talk to, you might need to uncomment the query-source
// directive below. Previous versions of BIND always asked
// questions using port 53, but BIND 8.1 and later use an unprivileged
// port by default.
// query-source address * port 53;
// If your ISP provided one or more IP addresses for stable
// nameservers, you probably want to use them as forwarders.
// Uncomment the following block, and insert the addresses replacing
// the all-0's placeholder.
forwarders {
68.87.77.130; 68.87.72.130;
};
};

/etc/bind/named.conf.local
Quote:
//
// Add local zone definitions here.
// We are the master server for mail.jzeller.com
zone "mail.jzeller.com" {
type master;
file "db.mail.jzeller.com";
};

These are the files that the guide I used for setup told me to change. I see a glue option in the named.conf.options, however it is set to no. When I have made changes i just run /etc/init.d/bind restart to restart the DNS server.
I understand what you are saying though it does make sense. Im just not always to sure of what I am doing. I know I have said it before, but thanks for your patience and helping me out with this!
