Dear Abhinav,

I have seen your posting on ILUGD and also checked your web sites i.e. 
www.rkgec.com and rkgec.com While www.rkgec.com opened correctly there was a 
problem with rkgec.com, I have gone through your configuration too and found a 
few things… 

 Your domain is actually having address and IP as ns1.rkgec.com and 
61.17.123.186 respectively .
 www.rkgec.com is actually a CNAME (Cannonical NAME) to ns1.rkgec.com 
 I also found that the machine www.rkgec.com (61.17.123.186) is the 
only m/c with all the following services running on it - DNS, Web, Mail
 For mailing purpose you have use "root@ rkgec.com".

on these findings I had a few recommendations for you as…

 Redfine your servers with the service it will be running and load, 
this would mean separate m/c with suitable configurations(as per server and 
load) as in my view this will help you in securing and management of these 
servers.
 Your config should be like 

www                     86352    IN    CNAME    rkgec.com.
rkgec.com.                      86352    IN    A        61.17.123.186
ns1.rkgec.com.          86352    IN    A        61.17.123.186
rkgec.com.                      86352    IN    MX   10  ns1.rkgec.com
rkgec.com.                      86352    IN    NS       ns1.rkgec.com.

        this could also be done differently, also time parameter could be tuned 
as per your requirement. Further in case if you go with my suggestion for 
separate servers then this entry would be like ….

www                     86352    IN    CNAME    rkgec.com.
rkgec.com.                      86352    IN    A        61.17.123.186
mail                    86352    IN    MX   10  <Mail Server IP>
rkgec.com.                      86352    IN    NS       ns1.rkgec.com
ns1.rkgec.com           86352    IN    A        <DNS Server IP>

Here your mail server will be "mail.rkgec.com", web server will be "rkgec.com/ 
www.rkgec.com." and name server will be "ns1.rkgec.com"

&#61623; Change your mail address for the reports to some other e.g. [EMAIL 
PROTECTED] etc.

Further I have written a small article on DNS which could be of some help, see 
at … http://fedoranews.org/mediawiki/index.php/How_to_configure_DNS_Server

In case if you still need my help then shoot your queries to me at [EMAIL 
PROTECTED]

Bimal Pandit
