I installed CentOS 4 on a new box to use as a DNS server. It is a basic server install. I configured named and it is all up and running fine. It just isn't listening on Port 53.

Not good for a public DNS server. I did install and turn on SELinux. Maybe that was a mistake? I've not worked with SELinux before.
Sounds like the default firewall is also turned on. The SElinux policies on this service would affect things both locally and remotely. Since local host/dig requests work, it sounds like the iptables is not allowing remote 53 tcp/udp packates -- Stephen J Smoogen. -- CSIRT/Linux System Administrator How far that little candle throws his beams!
