Hi, I'm advanced user of WHM and I'm facing problem with DNS I did not see before. I have domain example-123.com I created child name servers ns1.example-123.com & ns2.example-123.com on registrar control panel using server IP address. Also I configured name servers on server correctly. I'm doing this many times everyday. But now name servers is not resolving. I'm sure that ns1 and ns2 have A records setup on server. and also I'm sure that settings on server and on domain control panel are correct. Now the error I have :- "Bind" is enabled on server - I tried rebuilddns command and I'm sure that ports 53 & 953 are opened. So please help what could be the cause?

  Check /etc/named.conf does an entry for example-123.com exist? Check /var/named/example-123.db does the entry look OK?

  Bind" is enabled on server - I tried rebuilddns command and I'm sure that ports 53 & 953 are opened.

  
  Hello, Is the issue isolated to this particular domain name? If so, try backing up the zone, deleting, and then re-creating it to verify the zone isn't corrupted:
  cp -a /var/named/example-123.db /root/example-123.com.db /scripts/killdns example-123.com /scripts/adddns --domain example-123.com
  Ensure you repopulate the zone with any custom entries after creating it again. Thank you.
