DNS blues....

Hi Forum

A consistent problem with DNS set up gave sever head ache even though this damm thing work but it does not do what I like to do or see. When I try use apache server with www.onami.co.uk the url get kicked in from the DNS hosting company which is uk2.net I wonder where I am going wrong?

Any way I have following setting for my DNS server.

0/ On Red hat Enterprise 6 server

1/ I have fully registered domain i.e. onami.co.uk with company www.uk2.net on their server conanical name exists.

2/ I do NOT have static IP address at my premises instead dynamic address with router holding ip 192.168.1254 and allocating a IP to my DNS server 192.168.1.100

3/ In /etc/named.conf file modified and to added zone record for onami.co.uk forward and onami.rev.zone for reverse zone check two files stored in /var/named/data/ directories.

4/ when I ran “service named restart” I get response Stopping named [OK] starting named [OK]

5/ After analysing /var/log/messages I get following details

Code:

 tail /var/log/messages 
 Aug 29 13:00:47 hawk named[5113]: zone 1.0.0.127.in-addr.arpa/IN: loaded serial 0

 Aug 29 13:00:47 hawk named[5113]: running

6/ When I ran dig command with onami.co.uk I get following details:

Code:

 dig www.onami.co.uk

But when I try to use in firefox www.onami.co.uk instead company's web site ...nothing..but sausage

I am well and truly pI$$$$$$£@
