ok - I reckon that the key issue in the dns is now fixed - that pingability site certainly sees the domain now - but I still get the hosts issue :-(

Jim

it's public - but looks lke I was missing the period on the end of one of the name part of one of the A records for the nameserver. Updating now, will wait for caching and try in the morning :-)...

I have a :

zone "ozace.net.au" {
type master;
file "/var/named/ozace.net.au.db";
};
and

zone "localhost" IN {
type master;

Well I keep geting the hosts problem with this distribution against centos 3 - so maybe I should give up on this and try and use a diff stand alone machine for the testing
thanks
Jim

is there a version that will work on Centos 3.7 - or will I have to upgrade to Centos 4?

The 512MB is the guaranteed minimum - but will normally have access to more than that.

Jim

yep (thanks for coming back to me :) ) - DNS looks ok - I can ping the hostname on the server - and from outside the server, bind is running,

VPS is setup with 512MB ram guaranteed from 8 GB...
