Basically, I'm trying to host my own domain name from my Redhat 7.3 Linux box. I've reached the point where I can type my url (www.roskopp.com) from my Redhat box and hit the website no problem. If I do a "dig www.roskop.com" all the right information appears...life is wonderful.
However, on the other side of the fence(external machines) I can't reach www.roskopp.com. "nslookup www.roskop.com" reveals "DNS request timed out". I do have a router AND have all port 53 & 80 requests forwarded to my linux box so I don't think that is an issue. My zone file for roskop.com.zone looks as follows: $TTL 86400 @ IN SOA ns1.roskop.com. shannonwicks.hotmail.com ( 200206111 ; serial 28800 ; refresh 7200 ; retry 604800 ; expire 86400 ; ttl ) @ IN NS ns1 localhost IN A 127.0.0.1 ns1 IN A 24.81.XXX.33 www IN A 24.81.XXX.33 And my resolv.conf file looks as follows: search 127.0.0.1 ns1.roskop.com cg.shawcable.net nmeserver 127.0.0.1 nameserver 24.81.XXX.33 nameserver 24.71.XXX.144 nameserver 24.71.XXX.145 Any reasons why I can reach the DNS locally, but not from an external machine?
