Hi,

I need some help with Bind.

I have a Cox Business account that allows me to run servers with no 
blocked ports.

I have an old laptop configure running BIND 9 and Apache.

I can see the default Apache page if I enter my IP into a browser.  So 
Apache seems to be working.

My domain is KeithTheWebGuy.com.
My public IP is 98.191.108.149
I've port forwarded both 80 and 53.
I have a VPS that was serving KeithTheWebGuy.com and so I took the zone 
file from there and modified it with my public IP.
Apache is configured for KeithTheWebGuy.com so I think.

When I try to go to KeithTheWebGuy.com I get a message the site cannot 
be reached.

I'm thinking I have a BIND issue.

If I issue dig keiththewebguy.com at the command line I get:

--

No IP is returned.

If I "dig google.com"  An IP is returned.
