Hiiiiiiiii,
Thank u so much,it got worked :-) :-)


when i tried named -g ,it was showing some error "cannot open pid 
file",because my root filesystem(linux-2.6.24.7) was read-only so i made 
that as read and write,the main problem was when i try named each time 
named.pid will be created,since my root filesystem was read-only it was 
not able to create the named.pid file .......because of that named 
deamon was not running,now its working,
when i tried dig @my server ip example.com (my server ip = host ip where 
the dns server is running)
it is able to resolve the domain name.

With regards,
Vidya
