so following the guide

 

Step 3

this is my file

//
// Do any local configuration here
//

// Consider adding the 1918 zones here, if they are not used in your
// organization
//include "/etc/bind/zones.rfc1918";

zone "haggis.tech" {
        type master;
        file "/etc/bind/zones/haggis.tech.db";
        };

# This is the zone definition for reverse DNS. replace 0.168.192 with your network address in reverse notation - e.g my network address is 192.168.0
zone "0.168.192.in-addr.arpa" {
     type master;
     file "/etc/bind/zones/rev.0.168.192.in-addr.arpa";
};

my /etc/bind/named.conf.options is

	 forwarders {
	 	8.8.8.8;
	 };

my /etc/bind/zones/haggis.tech.db

// replace haggis.tech with your domain name. do not forget the . after the domain name!
// Also, replace ns1 with the name of your DNS server
haggis.tech.      IN      SOA     ns1.haggis.tech. admin.haggis.tech. (
// Do not modify the following lines!
                                                        2006081401
                                                        28800
                                                        3600
                                                        604800
                                                        38400
 )

// Replace the following line as necessary:
// ns1 = DNS Server name
// mta = mail server name
// haggis.tech = domain name
haggis.tech.      IN      NS              ns1.haggis.tech.
haggis.tech.      IN      MX     10       server.haggis.tech.

// Replace the IP address with the right IP addresses.
server              IN      A       192.168.0.64
ns1              IN      A       192.168.0.64

my /etc/bind/zones/rev.0.168.192.in-addr.arpa

//replace haggis.tech with yoour domain name, ns1 with your DNS server name.
// The number before IN PTR haggis.tech is the machine address of the DNS server. in my case, it's 1, as my IP address is 192.168.0.1.
@ IN SOA ns1.haggis.tech. admin.haggis.tech. (
                        2006081401;
                        28800; 
                        604800;
                        604800;
                        86400 
)

                     IN    NS     ns1.haggis.tech.
64                    IN    PTR    haggis.tech

and on server i get

Are both (or any) of the computers pointing at the DNS server in /etc/resolve.conf?

 

You can try running dig with the @server parameter anyway, to force the DNS server name to be queried:

dig @192.168.0.64 haggis.tech

If you get a correct answer there then look into setting the DNS nameserver in your network options.

i was being a complete idiot

 

my laptop was using dhcp :(

 

so when i was changing resolve.conf to look to the server it was defaulting back to 192.168.0.1 which is my router lol
