How to setup a virtual DNS network

[Andy Shellam (Mailing Lists)]

Firstly, where was that 'host not found' message from?  Ie. Have you 
tried doing 'dig @localhost ipv6.mot.com' on the nameserver? 
If that fails, have you checked your bind logs?
If that succeeds, are your other machines/router using your FC6 machine 
as their primary DNS server?
