Fedora Core 8 DNS Error?
Any concepts on what's happening?

[edit] On second thought, I have a feeling that this might be due to linode's fc8's network settings, and not Bind. Because, even if DNS was not allowing remote connections, the port should still be open, remotely. Unless network settings were blocking it, no?

Just do 'service iptables stop' or iptables -F and try it. I am not actually using Fedora 8 on the linode right now. I have two images..Centos 5 and Fedora 8 both configured the same. I am running a Fedoral 8 desktop here at home with bind running also. If you are not getting errors with bind, then it must be working. The if you look at /var/log/messages just after you restart bind you should get some real good clues if there is a problem.
Try dig @localhost google.com and see the result.
If you need details, tell me what you need.
