I see where I goofed now I did not take of the "\" when i created the new domain key. Before in the domainkeys dir i only had private now i have hwy39.net-dk.txt and private. So now the only area that I am grey on is how do I implement this into my bind authoratative dns servers. As soon as I am done with this I am going to update the wiki with more detailed instructions.
