-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Make sure all the machines in your zone have a period at the end, (I.E. ns1.example.com.). I noticed that the record for ns1 in your zone didn't have that, but I didn't mention it, since your next message said that you caught that problem. Wait a while, as in a few hours, for your zone info to propagate, unless of course you are querying your local name server when the ping command gets issued.
