My domain is not working
Sorry if this question has been asked before…
I've just bought Linode account this month.
I've set up a domain (xyz.com) for my account pointing to my IP (aaa.bbb.cc.ddd) offered by Linode.
By checking the status of my domain on Linode, everything works fine:
Your zone looks good!
zone xyz.com/IN: loaded serial 2016102818
OK
I've verified somewhere…
$ host aaa.bbb.cc.ddd
ddd.cc.bbb.aaa.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer lixxxx-yyy.members.linode.com.
Why my IP is not pointing to my domain ? Please help.
TIA

In A/AAA Records, I have these:
server -> my IP
www -> my IP
When looking up in Remote Access tab => Reverse DNS, I've got this:
Perform a forward lookup
Hostname : server.xyz.com
• No match was found for 'server.xyz.com'. Reverse DNS must have a matching forward entry that points to one of your IPs.
What am I missing ?

@glg:
post your real domain and IP and people will be able to better help you. DNS is public information anyway.
Ok, Ok… Now I poste my zone dump file:
; ns1.nktechcambodia.com [888858]
$TTL 86400
@ IN SOA ns1.linode.com. tk.gmail.com. 2016103014 14400 14400 1209600 86400

server.nktechcambodia.com AAAA 2400:8901::f03c:91ff:fea1:f2ef
When doing Check zone:
Your zone looks good!
zone ns1.nktechcambodia.com/IN: ns1.nktechcambodia.com/MX 'mail.nktechcambodia.com' (out of zone) has no addresses records (A or AAAA)
zone ns1.nktechcambodia.com/IN: loaded serial 2016103014
OK
Why out of zone for mail.nktechcambodia.com, I've already declared it ?
When doing Remote Access » Reverse DNS:
Perform a forward lookup
Hostname: server.nktechcambodia.com
• No match was found for 'server.nktechcambodia.com'. Reverse DNS must have a matching forward entry that points to one of your IPs.
Why Reverse DNS is also not working ? What are missing ?
Thanks for your help.

@glg:
nktechcambodia.com isn't in the whois database. Check with your domain registrar, something is awry there.
Oh GOD ! I've forgoten to update the whois database…
