Honestly you dont have a functional DNS server.! On Wed, Mar 28, 2012 at 3:08 PM, Odhiambo Washington <odhiambo@gmail.com>wrote:
So you really need to do a little soul-searching and answer my question.
With a functional DNS Server, you'll get something like this:
C:\Users\WashingtonO>nslookup Default Server: mx1.accesskenya.com Address: 196.207.28.126
cnn.com Server: mx1.accesskenya.com Address: 196.207.28.126
Non-authoritative answer: Name: cnn.com Addresses: 157.166.255.19 157.166.226.25 157.166.226.26 157.166.255.18
limuru.com Server: mx1.accesskenya.com Address: 196.207.28.126
Non-authoritative answer: Name: limuru.com Address: 66.18.200.72

Also, have you configured limuru.com forward lookup zone in DNS and the appropriate reverse lookup zone? sometimes DCPROMO fails to configure DNS correctly.

There you are. Your active DNS server is localhost (127.0.0.1) So the question is, have you enabled the DNS Server Service on this
server
and is it properly configured with the right "forwarders"?
Tafakari hayo;)
