Question Install - DNS Issues...

I'm trying to install on Ubuntu 6.10 and am stuck with a DNS error.

Code:
Setting defaults...No results returned for A lookup of mail.elementsofway.com
Checked nameservers:
        192.168.1.254
        192.168.1.254


DNS ERROR resolving mail.elementsofway.com
It is suggested that the hostname be resolveable via DNS
Change hostname [Yes]
When I ping mail.elementsofway.com or elementsofway.com, I get:
Code:
PING mail.elementsofway.com (192.168.1.90) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from mail.elementsofway.com (192.168.1.90): icmp_seq=1 ttl=63 time=3.38 ms
which is the IP address of my machine.


However when I dig mail.elementsofway.com, I get...

Code:
;; AUTHORITY SECTION:
elementsofway.com.      2560    IN      SOA     ns1.discountasp.net. hostmaster.discountasp.net. 1175575127 16384 2048 1048576 2560
which doesn't seem correct.


My /etc/hosts file is:

Code:
127.0.0.1       localhost.localdomain   localhost
192.168.1.90    mail.elementsofway.com  mail
192.168.1.90    elementsofway.com

# 127.0.1.1     paul-desktop

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts

I'm relatively new to linux, so it's probably simple. Any help would be great!

Thanks
