Hello Cristina,

have you read the DNS HOWTO at
"http://metalab.unc.edu/linux/HOWTO/DNS-HOWTO.html"?  Perhaps you don't
have the root servers configured.

In your /etc/named.conf, put something like:

>zone "." {
>       type hint;
>       file "named.root";
>};


And the file named.root should have something like (note that you can get a
newer version of this file from the addresses below):

>;       This file holds the information on root name servers needed to
>;       initialize cache of Internet domain name servers
>;       (e.g. reference this file in the "cache  .  <file>"
>;       configuration file of BIND domain name servers).
