[TriLUG] DNS server revisited

[Matt Pusateri]

Try putting a period after yorur web.home.linux and  
server1.home.linux  It might be having issues figuring out the FQDN.

Also in this line:  NS      ns    ; Inet Address of name server    is  
the ip pointed to 192.168.0.1 or to your ISP's name server

Finally if you do a dig +trace what do you get?
