reverse mapping or any other failure?

[Karsten Kaus]

well, my nameservers run, and as log as one is asking the other
everything seems to be fine.
in my intranet, everything is fine.
however, I registered 2 domains. a .com at directnic and a .de in
germany

.com:
i used granitecanyoncom for public nameservers. nslint there
says everything is fine. i get 3 messages from their soa.gran... which
all state, that everything is fine.
i get no errors in th whole process ( hole-process? :-) )

but then nothing happens. . the domain stays unknown in the net.
right now, they are unreachable again and i would rather run my own
servers.
but there:
as stated above it works fom my intranet. i can nslookup the domain an i

can call up the webpage.
when i
dig @www.kaus.org promusica-hannover.de axfr
on the secondary server it says:
; <<>> DiG 8.1 <<>> @www.kaus.org promusica-hannover.de axfr
; (1 server found)

to me that looks good

at denic, the nameservers are known, but the status is: nicht
konnektiert.
and so the domain is not known.

i tried the trial-version of an expensive dns-tester, which did not help

a bit.
it stated some warnings (no errors) about the reversed zone.
localhost..promusica-hannover.de has no reverse mapping it said
( sorry, the trialversion does not work any more
and because of my advanced age i might remember that slightly wrong)

the problem might be, that there are more than 1 name for all the same
ip-adress???
however, these are 2 of my zonfiles on www.kaus.org:
