few things.

get rid of the 'notify: no' for the jaymefall.com zone in named.conf.

make sure whenever you make changes, you increment the serial# by at least one in your zone file (then of course restart or HUP bind)

then the bottom part should look something like this:

jaymefall.com. A 142.176.30.182
ns CNAME jaymefall.com.
mail CNAME jaymefall.com.
www CNAME jaymefall.com.
ftp CNAME jaymefall.com.


also i'm not sure if the NS record is allowed to point to a CNAME, you might have to give up on the whole ns. thing, i did 😛

and FWIW here's my own zone file:

@ IN SOA incise.org. hostmaster.incise.org. (
2002014062
10800
3600
3600000
86400 )
NS wq.ath.cx.
MX 10 incise.org.
incise.org. A 12.217.125.42
irc CNAME incise.org.
ns CNAME incise.org.
mail CNAME incise.org.
www CNAME incise.org.
ftp CNAME incise.org.

(wq.ath.cx points to incise.org, godaddy for some reason would neither let me register a nameserver, or point to an IP for a nameserver, i might have overlooked something but whatever, this works good for me 😉)

i think i learned bind from the same howto as you did too 😛

also check out the oreilly book on DNS/bind, it's very good and filled in all of the blanks that that howto did not.

problem solved, someone suggested something in another forum I posted this on and it fixed the problem. Thanks all for the replies.
