| I'm setting up named on my fedora server. I am using the chroot package and
have some zones defined and have named running. nslookup and dig return the
appropriate information when queried.
the servers hostname is ns1.foobar.com and when I do a nslookup on the
server for foobar.com, I get ** server can't find foobar.com: SERVFAIL
any thoughts of what I am doing wrong?

You miss in the zone file for foobar.com a line
foobar.com. IN A 123.123.123.123

| Actually, I didn't specify the NS records correctly. Your comments made me
think of changing it. I thought I didn't need to when the SOA record was
the FQDN of the domain I was entering.
I had:
@ IN SOA dns1.foobar.com. postmaster.foobar.com. (
12345678
8H
4H
1W
1D
NS dns1
NS dns2
dns1 IN A 123.123.123.123
dns2 IN A 321.321.321.321
but it looks like I should have used a FQDN when i defined my NS record. As
soon as I changed dns1 to dns1.foobar.com. it started working.
Thanks for the help Alexander
