Thanks to all responders,

here is the domain I created a few days ago with webmin, but it is not
working

-----------------------------------
$ttl 38400
joy.edu.    IN    SOA    lvps87-230-8-228.dedicated.hosteurope.de.
joydeep.infoservices.in. (
            2007042502
            10800
            3600
            604800
            38400 )
joy.edu.    IN    NS    lvps87-230-8-228.dedicated.hosteurope.de.
ns1.joy.edu.    IN    A    87.230.8.228
joy.edu.    IN    A    87.230.8.228
