DNS newbie question

[Joel Hammer]

 I can get a similar error regarding the NS record by deleting the NS line
from my zone file, as below:
This is file 192.168.1

$TTL 1W
@      SOA      jhammer.org.  jlh.jhammer.org. (
                        1       ; Serial
                        8H      ; Refresh
                        2H      ; Retry
                        1W      ; Expire
                        1D)     ; Minimum TTL
                        NS      hammer2.jhammer.org. <---delete gives errors
below

1                       PTR     hammer1.jhammer.org.
2                       PTR     subnet.jhammer.org.
3                       PTR     laptop.jhammer.org.
6                       PTR     jhammer6.jhammer.org.
9                       PTR     elsa.jhammer.org.
7                       PTR     hammer7.jhammer.org.          


Error:  dns_zone_load: zone 1.168.192.in-addr.arpa/IN: no NS records 

I can't replicate your SOA errors, however.

Maybe you should grep through the source code and find out where this
error is coming from?

DNS is a bear, yes?
