Help! Getting SERVFAIL errors on nslookup

[Joshua Peter]

The problem was in my zone file. The eol of line 3 didn't have the open 
parenthesis there. As you can see from my copy/paste it was on the next 
line. Boy do I feel dumb. Below was my initial zone file configuration. You 
can see the mistake. Thanks for your help.
