here is a snippet from my /var/log/messages.

I don't really understand this.

Aug 30 08:30:57 webhost named[3553]: unexpected RCODE (SERVFAIL) resolving '24hrgarage.com/A/IN': 209.55.5.10#53
Aug 30 08:30:58 webhost named[3553]: unexpected RCODE (SERVFAIL) resolving '24hrgarage.com/A/IN': 209.55.5.11#53
Aug 30 08:30:58 webhost named[3553]: unexpected RCODE (SERVFAIL) resolving '24hrgarage.com/A/IN': 208.109.255.13#53
Aug 30 08:30:58 webhost named[3553]: unexpected RCODE (SERVFAIL) resolving '24hrgarage.com/A/IN': 64.202.165.116#53

209.55.5.10 and .11 are the DNS server I use. I don't really know why the other two DNS IP are being looked up??? Cetainly I didn't tell my computer to use them.

Either way, you might need to know that I don't use IPv6 on my LAMP server.

I have MANY of these types of issues. I either need to fix the problem or if it can be ignored then I need to make them stop showing up.

Either way, I can provide whatever logs are needed.

I run my own local dns server, virt domains with ispconfig and postfix with various blacklists, etc.

Thanks.

Did you google for it? Using DNS server?

I have been googling for an answer for several days now and have found nothing helpful.

[av1611]

it would seem that I have a few virtual domains (created with an older version of ISPConfig on Fedora 6) that don't have a zone entry in named.conf.

I tried to add one manually but then I got an error the the zone file was not found.

I don't really know how to create the zone file manually so the named.conf entry will work.

Please help.

I am not good at this dns junk.
