Hello!

I installed BIND and configured via Webmin in the following manner:

$ttl 38400
sohipitmhz.com. IN SOA ns1.sohipitmhz.com. justin\.bull.c3studios.ca. (
1213586206
10800
3600
604800
38400 )

sohipitmhz.com. IN NS ns1.sohipitmhz.com.
sohipitmhz.com. IN NS ns2.sohipitmhz.com.

ns1.sohipitmhz.com. IN A 24.80.213.124
ns2.sohipitmhz.com. IN A 24.80.213.124

sohipitmhz.com. IN A 24.80.213.124

localhost.sohipitmhz.com. IN A 127.0.0.1

sohipitmhz.com. IN MX 0 sohipitmhz.com.

www IN CNAME sohipitmhz.com.
mail IN CNAME sohipitmhz.com.
bullbox IN A 24.80.213.124

and

options {
directory "/etc";
pid-file "/var/run/named/named.pid";
};

zone "." {
type hint;
file "/etc/db.cache";
};

zone "sohipitmhz.com" {
type master;
file "/var/named/sohipitmhz.com.hosts";
};


I have BIND running with chroot (/var/named/chroot/) and LAMP. The Postfix hasn't been properly configured yet.

Here are the details:

Hostname: bullbox.sohipitmhz.com
IP Address: 24.80.213.124
Domain: sohipitmhz.com


So for some reason it doesn't work! Am I missing something in my configuration? Both nameservers are the same box.

Thank you!

You need a glue record for sohipitmhz.com: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_Name_System#Circular_dependencies_and_glue_ records

So the modified configuration would look like this?

$ttl 38400
sohipitmhz.com. IN SOA ns1.sohipitmhz.com. justin\.bull.c3studios.ca. (
1213586206
10800
3600
604800
38400 )

sohipitmhz.com. IN NS ns1.sohipitmhz.com.
sohipitmhz.com. IN NS ns2.sohipitmhz.com.

ns1.sohipitmhz.com. IN A 24.80.213.124
ns2.sohipitmhz.com. IN A 24.80.213.124

sohipitmhz.com. IN A 24.80.213.124

localhost.sohipitmhz.com. IN A 127.0.0.1

sohipitmhz.com. IN MX 0 sohipitmhz.com.

www IN CNAME sohipitmhz.com.
mail IN CNAME sohipitmhz.com.
bullbox IN A 24.80.213.124
ns1 IN A 192.168.1.133 // LAN IP
ns2 IN A 192.168.1.133 // LAN IP


Sorry, searching for definitive instructions of glue records has turned up mixed results.

No, you must ask your registrar to set up glue records for your domain. That's nothing you can do yourself.
