We had a major power outage at the datacenter where I host due to a sub-station going up in flames.

When the server came back up DNS was acting a bit strange.

I bumped named and things started to work again.

All my hosted domains resolve, my NS servers resolv, but the root name of the server will not.

My server is

appeltech.org 38.103.165.203
ns1.appeltech.org 38.103.165.204 - I have this defined in godaddy as NS1
ns2.appeltech.org 38.103.165.205 - I have this defined in godaddy as NS1

on the server is hosted quite a few domains but here is one

appeltech.com

if I dig it, it returns the 2 NS servers properly, if I dig appeltech.org, it does not

attached is a jpg of my current DPS configuration within directadmin

I know I have something wrong somewhere, I just don't know what.

Below is my named.conf
Code:
// generated by named-bootconf.pl

options {
        directory "/var/named";
        recursion no;
        allow-recursion {127.0.0.1; };
        /*
         * If there is a firewall between you and nameservers you want
         * to talk to, you might need to uncomment the query-source
         * directive below.  Previous versions of BIND always asked
         * questions using port 53, but BIND 8.1 uses an unprivileged
         * port by default.
         */
        // query-source address * port 53;
};

//
// a caching only nameserver config
//
controls {
        inet 127.0.0.1 allow { localhost; } keys { rndckey; };
};
zone "." IN {
        type hint;
        file "named.ca";
};
/*
zone "localhost" IN {
        type master;
        file "localhost.zone";
        allow-update { none; };
};

zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" IN {
        type master;
        file "named.local";
        allow-update { none; };
};
*/
include "/etc/rndc.key";

zone "osiris.appeltech.org" { type master; file "/var/named/osiris.appeltech.org.db"; };

Ya, it started working, guess it maybe need to be propagated.

Everything is fine now, cept one site. A name of community.phlorph.com

phlorph.com works, as well as phlorph.com/community just not the A name
 
I don't understand what you mean by A name. Do you mean the A record? If the A record wasn't working then you couldn't reach the domain.
