I have figured out and resolved my issue. For some reason I could not read the contents of the db.rootcache file. So I deleted and downloaded a new copy. Now everything is working. Thx to all for your assistance.

For the two domains hosted on this server, we can resolve any entry. However, if we try to do an nslookup to cnn, google, yahoo, etc. it fails. We have turned off iptables and verified internet connectivity. Below is the error we get. What other areas should we be looking at to troubleshoot? Thx in advance for any help given. nslookup www.cnn.com ;; Got SERVFAIL reply from 192.243.160.18, trying next server Server: 192.243.130.42 Address: 192.243.130.42#53 Non-authoritative answer: Name: www.cnn.com Address: 157.166.226.26 Name: www.cnn.com Address: 157.166.255.18 Name: www.cnn.com Address: 157.166.255.19 Name: www.cnn.com Address: 157.166.224.25 Name: www.cnn.com Address: 157.166.224.26 Name: www.cnn.com Address: 157.166.226.25 Mark
