Bind / server questions

[Keith Smith]

You say Add nameserver(s) to your resolv.conf  meaning ns1.domain.tld 
ns2.domain.tld - one line?


Looks like the custom name servers are configured correctly and set at 
my host.

nslookup says:

Server:         127.0.1.1
Address:        127.0.1.1#53

Non-authoritative answer:
*** Can't find www.domain.tld: No answer

nmap using domain:

sudo nmap -sT -O www.domain.tld

Starting Nmap 6.40 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2014-12-09 22:29 MST
Failed to resolve "www.domain.tld".

try with IP:

keith at host-name:~ > sudo nmap -sT -O xx.xx.xx.xx

Starting Nmap 6.40 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2014-12-09 2:30  MST

I configured nat for 80 - which works by IP, and port 53.

I verified my router has NAT for port 53 enabled.

Any suggestions?

Thank you for your help!!
