Pete,

ns2.wppi.net has been made unavailbe for a while until I get a chance to
install a new OS on it. It was running an old unpached OS and I just need to
get some free time to install a new dist.

Thanks,

SW

Well, of your two name servers, one is not responding at all, and the
other is refusing queries:

ucan[~]$ dig mcbc-dc.org ns @ns1.wppi.net.

; <<>> DiG 9.2.2rc1 <<>> mcbc-dc.org ns @ns1.wppi.net.
;; global options:  printcmd
;; Got answer:

ucan[~]$ ^1^2
dig mcbc-dc.org ns @ns2.wppi.net.

; <<>> DiG 9.2.2rc1 <<>> mcbc-dc.org ns @ns2.wppi.net.
;; global options:  printcmd

ucan[~]$


Makes it pretty hard to resolve mcbc-dc.org.

Fix the packet filter or routing problem with ns2.wppi.net so that
queries can actually get to it, then allow the world to query your
zones. What does named.conf look like on ns1?
