no address for root server

[Bjorn Sodergren]

im trying to "fix" dialtoneinternet's default DNS setup to add PTR records
so i can use Qmail. but in the process, i have broke something :\
when i type `nslookup www.underthemain.net' (my domain, but not the servers)

[sweede at ns named]$ nslookup www.underthemain.net
Server:  ns.harborbaydesigns.com
Address:  64.65.0.141

*** ns.harborbaydesigns.com can't find www.underthemain.net: Server failed

in my syslog i get this.
 named[4984]: ns_req: no address for root server

i've seach high and low and cant find a reason to why this would happen.
my /etc/hosts file,
127.0.0.1       localhost.localdomain   localhost
64.65.1.141     ns.harborbaydesigns.com ns

my /etc/resolv.conf
search harborbaydesigns.com
nameserver 64.65.0.141
nameserver 64.65.1.141

my /etc/named.boot file has
;
; a caching only nameserver config
;
directory                              /var/named
cache           .                      named.ca
primary         0.0.127.in-addr.arpa   named.local
my /etc/named.conf file has
options {
        directory "/var/named";
        forward only;
};
zone "." {
        type hint;
        file "named.ca";
};
.....
the rest of the file is hosted virtual domains.


and my /var/named/named.ca file contains the same file found at
rs.internic.net/domain/named.root

the 64.65.0.rev file is
@               IN      SOA     ns.harborbaydesigns.com.
hostmaster.ns.harborbaydesigns.com. (

                        900 ; retry
                        1209600 ; expire
                        43200 ; default_ttl
                        )

141             IN      PTR     ns.harborbaydesigns.com.

and last but not least, the harborbaydesigns.com file
;authoritative data for harborbaydesigns.com
harborbaydesigns.com.   IN  SOA     ns.harborbaydesigns.com.

                        86400 ; default_ttl
                        )

i've been using Linuxconf to try and fix the problem, but i cannot seem to
correct it.

thanks for your help!
