Name Server not working

[memoriess]

Hi,

I've just installed DA yesterday, however noticed that the default created nameservers are not working.

Any ideas how to solve it?

Whats the problem?

Is the nameserver not starting/responding?
Try to ping the NS ip.

Or is the problem that ns.your-domain.com is not responding?
You have to register the nameservers with your registrar to get set it up.

You don't tell us the OS distribution you're using. Many OS distributions leave named off.

If you're running RHL, RHEL, or CentOS you can turn it on this way:

First turn on named:

# service named start

and set up so it'll always start on reboot:

# chkconfig --level 3 named on
