i'm setting up a second domain through my server.
i have everything squared away with internic. i set up my name server by
including an entry in the named.boot file like this:
; load prevention domain
primary preventionresearch.org named.preres

i created the zone file named.preres and put dns things in it:


; BIND data file for preventionresearch.org.
;
_at_ IN SOA tigger.oslc.org. postmaster.tigger.oslc.org. (
                        3 ; Serial
                        3600 ; Refresh
                        300 ; Retry
                        3600000 ; Expire
                        3600 ) ; Minimum
        IN NS tigger.oslc.org.
        IN NS gatekeeper.oslc.org.
preventionresearch.org IN MX 1 tigger.oslc.org
"hosts-17" IN A 198.68.4.10
; end

restarted the named service and syslog reports everything spiffy:

Dec 10 11:12:36 tigger named[24126]: starting. named 4.9.3-B17 Fri Nov 15 21:29:00 EST 1996

Dec 10 11:12:36 tigger named[24126]: cache zone "" loaded (serial 0)
Dec 10 11:12:36 tigger named[3241]: Ready to answer queries.


everything seems to be running o.k. but when i try to ping preventionresearch.org from
another machine i get "ping: unknown host preventionresearch.org"

did i miss something in setting this new second domain up?

thanx! in advance
