When I try and contact I get:

The DNS name server for the host specified in your URL could not be
contacted.  Please try your request again.
This error could have been caused by:

Load conditions on the web server 
Load conditions on the Proxy server 
Your network connection and/or transient conditions on the Internet 

There are a few things to try.

1) Might be silly but . . . are you sure you properly own that domain
and that the IP address of your DNS server hasn't changed from when you
registered it?
2) Has your domain been registered for more than 2 days?  If not it
takes a while for the world to get updated and you may have to wait a
day or two.
2) From inside the LAN, using a computer pointing to your DNS server,
are you able to resolve any hosts on threeofus.com?  If you can resolve
any_hostname.threeofus.com from inside the LAN, and not from outside,
then that means that your Dns server is working properly, but for some
reason they can't connect from outside.  This could occur because:
  a) It hasn't been more than two days since you registered.
  b) Your DNS server runs a firewall or is behind a firewall that
rejects incoming connections on port 53.
  c) The master domain servers aren't pointing to the right IP address
for your DNS server.

Warren

Subject: bind woes


I'm currently running VA enhanced RH Linux 6.2.4, the 2.2.19 kernel and
8.2.0.6.x.i386 bind on the machine that I use as a nameserver.

Everything's been running just fine... and, in fact, on all the machines
on my network, if I'm trying to find addresses in the world, it seems
like
everything resolves, and everything is pointing to my own nameserver,
dns.threeofus.com at 199.232.38.4... however, just try getting in!  try
finding ANY hostname at threeofus.com.. it's not there!...  My
nameserver
is not telling the world out there that we're here... It used to... I'm
not nearly enough of a bind/dns wonk to figure this out... i tried
upgrading to bind-9.1.0.10 but.. since I'm running 6.2.4 all the library
dependencies fail... 

Can anyone help me troubleshoot this problem?  I've looked around on
deja,
but nothing jumped out as something for me to actually *try* as a way to
troubleshoot what's wrong and start understanding and fixing it...

TIA,

J.
