Can't get server to work on the web need some help

[kadi]

hello everybody
this is my first try with linux server so i am no expert, but i learned some new things with linux, i used debian etch 4.0r1server also i followed the perfect setup for debian etch instructions and thanks alot to mr/Falko without this help it will take me may be at least a few months to set it up.
I have ISPConfig installed and i setup the DNS on it for the domain ,i checked the box Create DNS , the domain is registered with a company (registerar) , also i have to mension that i am using a Router with a cable modem.
now I can see the site (index) on the localhost but i can't see it or access it
outside the server on the web or the internet, i tried so many computers to
get to the site from outside but it does not work.
I ping the dns from network tools and it works fine also if i enter the ip in browser from outside computer on the web it comes on with shared IP page but if i use the name www.mydomain.com it syas cannot find page.
I ping the dns [ns1.mydomain.com] from another computer it says Request timed out.
I don't know what i am missing , i even reinstalled the OS 3 times to clean the system and still didn't work.
so i am not sure what could be the reason, is it the files like hosts, hostname, network interfaces, or could be from ISPConfig ?
I attached some files in zip format it may help.
Thanks very much for help in advance it will be appreciated.

There aren't even nameservers for that domain. Are you sure you registered that domain?

[kadi]

hello again
here is whois results for the site :
Domain Name: KANDKMARKET.COM
Registrar: TUCOWS INC.
Whois Server: whois.tucows.com
Referral URL: http://domainhelp.opensrs.net
Name Server: NS1.KANDKMARKET.COM
Name Server: NS2.KANDKMARKET.COM
Status: clientTransferProhibited
Status: clientUpdateProhibited
Updated Date: 10-dec-2007
Creation Date: 04-mar-2002
Expiration Date: 04-mar-2008
You think the registrar could send the dns wrong numbers ? by the way i have
to explain somthing:
1- i am with cable company with cable modem and i am using a netgear
router also i setup a static ip in the router with: 192.168.0.100.
2- i called cable company and they gave me the dns numbers and when
i ping with network tools this numbers works.
I don't know what to say , if it is my server or from the registrar , would it be
a bad idea to go to easyDNS and take a secondary dns ? is that will work?
as i mensioned i my first post that i am very new to linux and i am trying it
because i got tired of others, i am doing my best to get this server working,
sometime may be i mess up the files because i don't know better.
should i format or just install debian from the beginning again? another thing , could it be ISPConfig setup for dns is wrong ?
Today i got email from the registrar(domainnamesystems) they offer a dns $10 a year also
they offer a dynamic dns for cable modems and router as private server, If you think
it is better to take one of those fine with me.
also i saw a tutorial on the web (How to create your own DNS) finally my cable company
support said i don't need one because i am using router.

Thanks again for your help

At least you have nameservers now:

[root@server1 ~]# dig ns kandkmarket.com

; <<>> DiG 9.2.4 <<>> ns kandkmarket.com
;; global options:  printcmd
;; Got answer:

kandkmarket.com.        104781  IN      NS      ns2.kandkmarket.com.

;; ADDITIONAL SECTION:
ns2.kandkmarket.com.    104781  IN      A       24.158.63.9
ns1.kandkmarket.com.    104781  IN      A       24.158.63.8

[root@server1 ~]#

Now you can go ahead and create records for kandkmarket.com on ns1.kandkmarket.com and ns2.kandkmarket.com.
