For keithsmithinternetmarketing.com I had hosts (glue records) set to my VPS until this morning when I parked the domain at GoDaddy. The two domains I am working with on my SOHO home server are 1) keiththewebguy.com and 2) phpcodetest.com. I setup keiththewebguy.com first and configured BIND9 for it on the same server. To try to troubleshoot I configures phpcodetest.com on the same box, however it uses Zoneedit for DNS. phpcodetest.com works as expected. keiththewebguy.com does not work. I've tried everything I can think of. I've tested the config files, run dig, and verified port 53 is open. I took the zone file for phpcodetest.com from my VPS that runs Plesk and previously hosted keiththewebguy.com. I forgot to change the IP addresses in the zone to my SOHO box and the website on my VPS was accessible. When I changed the IP addresses in the zone file to my SOHO box the website quit working. I assumed this meant I had an Apache issue and that is when I added phpcodetest.com to test Apache. I've checked apache several times... And I am about to verify one more time. Thank you for your help!!
