What do you get when you do:
# ping ns1.domain.com. # ping ns2.domain.com. # ping test1.domain.com.
or
# dig mydomain.com. soa
or
# dig mydomain.com. ns
from the client machine?
I am wndering if proper access to the domain mydomain.com is in place.

Dear all,
I'm experiencing a problem with my DNS server. I've set up GNUDip on a Linux machine, and updating from the web via a client computer works fine. But, from the client computer, when I PING a certain newly created or newly updated hostname (ie. host1.mydomain.com) via the command prompt, the return is:
"Unknown host host1.mydomain.com."
Attached below is a sample of my zone file for mydomain.com
$ORIGIN . $TTL 86400 ; 1 day mydomain.com IN SOA ns1.mydomain.com. root.mydomain.com. ( 22 ; serial 3600 ; refresh (1 hour) 1800 ; retry (30 minutes) 604800 ; expire (1 week) 0 ; minimum (0 seconds) ) NS ns1.my-isp.net. NS ns1.mydomain.com. A 200.100.10.50 MX 0 mail.mydomain.com. $ORIGIN mydomain.com. ftp CNAME ns1 $TTL 60 ; 1 minute host1 A 200.100.10.1 $TTL 86400 ; 1 day 50.10.100.200.in-addr PTR ns1 $TTL 60 ; 1 minute host2 A 200.100.10.2 host3 A 200.100.10.3 $TTL 86400 ; 1 day localhost A 127.0.0.1 loopback CNAME localhost. mail CNAME ns1 mysqladmin A 200.100.10.50 ns1 A 200.100.10.50 ns2 A 200.100.10.51 $TTL 0 ; 0 seconds test1 A 192.168.100.100 $TTL 86400 ; 1 day www CNAME ns1 $TTL 60 ; 1 minute host4 A 200.100.10.4
NOTE ON THE ABOVE zone file:
host1, host2, host3, host4 are hostnames I added via the GNUDip web interface with admin user. I dunno why they are in the positions they are in, within the zone file. Nor do I know why there are multiple "$TTL" lines in the zone file. Is this normal or no?
I cannot ping any of host1 to host4.
Any other info should I submit for you to analyze before we can find out why I cannot ping those GNUDip added hostnames?
Best regards
Chris
