Configure bind for private home network without top level domain

[Andreas Guther]

Hi Peter:

thanks for the comments.  I finally had the time this morning to go over the 
configuration files again and (I'm so happy :) could get my server to work.

While reading other postings I noticed that there might be an issue with the 
/etc/resolv.conf file.  I had as nameserver 0.0.0.0.  After changing it to the 
internal IP address and going over the named.conf and the db files with a fresh 
view I could spot some missing semicolons in addition.  All together made the trick.

Regards,

Andreas
