Is this DNS server behind a firewall?
Is this DNS server master for your zone?
What is your zone name?
Does your Domian registration include this server as primary for your domain name?

for information on setting up BIND (if that is what you are using)

Subject: DNS problem
hello
i have a problem with my DNS server.
first, i have a registered domain name and i want to change its NS server to my server to host it in my home (just for learning about DNS)
second (the problem), when i use nslookup from another computers in my local network, the dns
server works fine, but when external connection (internet connection, let say my friend connection) tryies to use my dns server, i got error message "DNS request timed out", why ? and how to solve it ?
NOTE: i have an ADSL account, which mean i'm using a router to connect to the internet, and i'm redirection all ports from the external connections to my machine ip, so that i'm able to open a server or to connect to my machine from anywhere.
thanks
