*Running 11.10 64-bit Ubuntu-Server*
I've been tasked with setting up an email server for a school project and have hit a snag, after searching for about a week and not being able to figure it out on my own... I've decided to come here for help.
The issue is simply that I can't resolve to my domain via ping from the server it's self whereas it works from other stations on the network- that and dig doesn't seem to recognize anything beyond my router but I'll save that for a late date.
I'm sure I'm just overlooking something really stupid but here goes:
/etc/bind/named.conf.local
Code:
zone "UHMS.us" {
type master;
file "/etc/bind/db.UHMS.us";
};
zone "1.168.192.in-addr.arpa" {
type master;
notify no;
file "/etc/bind/db.192";
};
dig -x 127.0.0.1
Code:
; <<>> DiG 9.7.3 <<>> -x 127.0.0.1

and of course...
ping -c 3 google.com
Code:

rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 36.248/37.434/38.719/1.011 ms
but, from the server, if I try to...
ping -c 3 UHMS.us, it leads to:
Code:
ping: unknown host UHMS.us
I don't think this should prevent me from setting up POSTFIX but just in case I'd like to get it all working properly. I'll be checking back frequently should anyone have a quick solution or be in need of more info.
If this helps any (dig from the server):
Code:
; <<>> DiG 9.7.3 <<>> uhms.us
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:

Thank you in advance!
