I have a zone on the server of 127.0.0.1 with the following content:

$TTL 3h
@       IN SOA prcdigital.com sreese.prcdigital.com. (
                          1        ; Serial
                          3h       ; Refresh after 3 hours
                          1h       ; Retry after 1 hour
                          1w       ; Expire after 1 week
                          1h )     ; Negative caching TTL of 1 hour

                NS  ns1.prcdigital.com.
                NS  ns2.prcdigital.com.

1               PTR localhost.

I though this was required in order for bind to run correctly. I would
like to server to be the authoritive server for this domain so I will
contact our ISP and make sure they do not have any stale entries (if
there's such a thing). From the zone files that I have posted do they
look correct in the order that they could run an authoritive server?
Finally I don't understand why the www.neocipher.net is coming up as the
name.
