I have read everything in tldp.org howto for DNS and I can not make my DNS server work. What is wrong with my configuration. What do I need to twik. Here is the story. I wanted to build a DNS server from RH8 so I can use it in my internal network. After pointing my desktop to 192.168.1.154 as the primary DNS I can not even go to www.yahoo.com. I am use to pointing to a DNS server of our ISP but I wanted to build one for our network because it is sometimes down. Below is my is configuration. I can do a dig to www.yahoo.com and when I restart named and make a tail here is what I get

bind defaults to listen on every ip add the box has, from what you posted here it looks like that your dns box is not even connected to the internet? all you have is the loopback and a private address?
