It's only listening on the local loopback address, so you won't get
anything when trying to access it through another interface.

The "dig" tool is used for testing domain name stuff.  Run it on the
same box as the server, and try it on other boxes, too.

dig name-to-look-up @server-to-query

e.g. dig example.com @127.0.0.1

It'll use the servers listed in your resolv.conf file, instead, if you
don't specify which server to query.

Using localhost in the domain configurations (such as your NS records)
is only going to give you problems if you want to use it with other
machines on your LAN, or with other addresses.  So many things expect it
to only ever point to 127.0.0.1, and it's not going to work across
different machines.

Using short hostnames will only work if your resolv.conf file lists a
search domain name to add onto the end of short hostnames.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.  I
read messages from the public lists.
