No Dns Zones, can someone please help

[fuzzie]

Can someone please help me?
I have successfully installed cpanel on a fresh RH 7.3 install.
It sits behind a firewall, but seems to be working with IPTABLES.

I have created 3 test accounts. These domains are working fine. The FTP for them is working fine.

I am having problems with the mail and the DNS. When I go to edit a dns zone file, there are none to choose from. Zilch. Nadda.

I have no clue (clueless) on how to setup the mail.

Please?

fuzzie,

If you are editing via WHM then when you click Edit a DNS zone a list should appear (it may take a little while). Otherwise you can enter the name directly using the following convention

domain.com.db

If you leave off the .db the zone file will not appear.

do you have a master nameserver setup? Should you have a master nameserver filled in?

[fuzzie]

That was it, thanks.

I wrote a step-by-step instruction on how to get your name servers working in another thread:

just click on the link

I just don't get it.
The DNS detailed instructions were great...it is working.
dnsreport.com show my DNS is up and running fine.
But none of my domains work.

I think it has to do with the firewall...the cpanel machine has my DSL connected to it and the masquerading firewall script allows the other computers on the LAN to see the world.

I have all the ports found in another post open...but nothing shows up from the outside world...any idea?

Well, I found the problem!
the httpd.conf file had the private IP instead of the public IP...don't know why....changed it and it rocks!
