DNS Problem


Hello All,
	I set up one of my linux boxes as a DNS (not the machine with the kernel
upgrade).  The  DNS is resolving names Ok but I get errors when I run dig
and nslookup.

dig gives me;
---------------------------------------------------------
[root@pip] /root:58> dig pip
 
; <<>> DiG 2.1 <<>> pip
;; res options: init recurs defnam dnsrch
;; got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: SERVFAIL, id: 6
;; flags: qr rd ra; Ques: 1, Ans: 0, Auth: 0, Addit: 0

;; MSG SIZE  sent: 21  rcvd: 21
----------------------------------------------------------
and nslookup gives me;
---------------------------------------------------------
[root@pip] /root:59> nslookup pip
*** Can't find server name for address 192.9.200.104: Server failed

-----------------------------------------------------------
if I run nslookup in debug mode I get;
-----------------------------------------------------------
[root@pip] /root:60> nslookup -d pip
;; res_mkquery(0, 104.200.9.192.in-addr.arpa, 1, 12)

Got answer:
    HEADER:

        header flags:  response, want recursion, recursion avail.
        questions = 1,  answers = 0,  authority records = 0,  additional = 0
 
    QUESTIONS:
        104.200.9.192.in-addr.arpa, type = PTR, class = IN

*** Can't find server name for address 192.9.200.104: Server failed
*** Default servers are not available
------------------------------------------------------------
Is this because I only have one DNS setup?

If anyone can help let me know. I'm going to attach the contents of my
resolv.conf, named.boot, named.local, named.hosts, and named.rev

Thanks,
Ron
