i did as u advised. the output was
===
zone "abc.com" (file db.abc.com):No default TTL set
using SOA minimum instead
master zone "abc.com" (in) loaded (serial 1)
zone "sun.com" (file db.sun.com):No default TTL set
using SOA minimum instead.
master zone "sun.com" (IN) loaded (serial 1)
zone "1.0.0.127.in-addr.arpa"(file
db.1.0.0.127.in-addr.arpa):No default TTL set using
SOA minimum instead.

when i used 
%nslookup mynameserver.sun.com
it returned the same error 
**can't find server name for address
10.0.0.20:non-existent host/domain

10.0.0.20 is the ip address of my computer! what's
wrong with bind 8.2.2-p5??? /usr/sbin/named is
running..& yet nslookup can't find the server!!

Pls help,thanks
