BIND PE problems - my domain not working
I have installed the latest BIND PE, and it is working, my firewall logs say it is sending and recieving a lot of traffic on port 53.
However, the domain name hosted on the server that I want to point to my IP is not working...I think this is because of an error in my configuration files. However, I have looked through them and I can't see anything wrong. I am new to BIND PE, so I am not really sure what I'm looking for. I have attached the contents of c:\windows\system32\dns\etc , and if anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it.

Are there any errors in your logs? On win2k/xp these should show up in the Application Log in Event Viewer (Control Panel, Admin Tools).
Looking at your zone file I'm not sure if the syntax of the SOA record is correct: Code:
@ SOA ns1 ( AV_ACE 2003062500 ;Serial Number 1h ;Refresh interval for slave servers updating their zone 15m ;Retry interval if the slave server update failed 30d ;Maximum time zone is authoritative on slave before expire 1h) ;Minimum TTL for all records in this zone I'm not sure about the first line, I think it should be more like: Code:
@ IN SOA ns1 email_address ( and also I'm not sure about the 'AV_ACE' line - that shouldn't be there at all AFAIK. What does that do or what is it supposed to do? Also in the named.conf file itself you have this line: Code:
allow-query { "private"; };
but you don't override that setting in the zone statement to allow anyone to query the server for questions about the zone. Either remove the allow-query line in the global options or add another allow-query line in the zone file for your domain.

Thanks
Thanks! A DNS Crawler ( URL ) now says that my DNS server is working perfectly. However, URL , says that "[ERROR: The parent servers say that the domain nicholasjameswhite.com does not exist.]", and I don't know what this means.
Thanks for your help so far, but if you could explain this I would be very grateful.

Probably means that the domain nicholasjameswhite.com doesn't exist in the top level servers in the DNS system - ie the domain isn't a registered domain! You need to register the domain with a domain registrar such as godaddy or tucows or whomever before you can use the domain publicly.
