Where is linux.nf ?

[Hafiz]

Thanks Norbert and Matthew,

Yeah I forget to check the logs file. Suppose that the first thing I check
for errors.

BTW have you guys got any working domain named configuration? I need it as
my cross reference. For now dns1.powertrips.org can be resolved but its look
like for reverse lookup it doesnt work. Well I tested it on IRC, I dont know
the command to test it on linux system.

Once again thanks for all of your reply.
