I did an nslookup on ns.heftyhosting.com and it's not resolving yet...

here's what I did to the DNS zone:

$TTL 3600
@       IN      SOA     ns.heftyhosting.com. postmaster.ns.heftyhosting.com.
2001120602 10800 3600 604800 3333
@       IN      A       66.33.80.195
@       IN      A       66.33.81.195
ftp.heftyhosting.com.   IN      A       66.33.80.195
heftyhosting.com.       IN      MX      10 mail.heftyhosting.com.
heftyhosting.com.       IN      NS      ns.heftyhosting.com.
heftyhosting.com.       IN      NS      ns2.heftyhosting.com.
heftyintro      IN      CNAME   heftyhosting.com.
mail.heftyhosting.com.  IN      A       66.33.80.195
www.heftyhosting.com.   IN      A       66.33.80.195


========================================
when I do 'hostname' I get this:

[root@ns /]# hostname
ns.heftyhosting.com
[root@ns /]#

========================================

[root@ns /]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network
NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=ns.heftyhosting.com
GATEWAY=66.33.80.1
[root@ns /]#


nslookup says:

[root@ns /]# nslookup ns.heftyhosting.com
Server:  localhost
Address:  127.0.0.1

*** localhost can't find ns.heftyhosting.com: Non-existent host/domain
[root@ns /]#

========================================
what must I do now?

dialtone has a system to update PTR records via email autoresponder...

is that what's missing?

Many Thanks'
