Hi Ladislav,

Thanks for your reply.

Here is my 'dig' command and output:

rudi at central:~$ dig @64.235.238.29 rudistarcevic.net. any

Yes.

I think so.
I just added the following 2 lines to my named.conf file
just under "options {"

allow-recursion { any; };
allow-query { any; };


> did you check the queries log file?
Yes. 
I'm using syslog right now but plan on using daemon.log in production.
There is output in there when I query bind from the same machine bind
is running on but no output for a query from the Internet.

I'm sure it's something simple.
Thanks for putting me on the right track by asking me these questions.

Regards
Rudi.
