Ok, copied your file exactly as is with obvious name/ip changes and set perms correctly. It didn't makle any difference? I enabled logging and set it to debug and it shows nothing. I was doings this remotely from a windows box and using nslookup on the windows box, funny thing is using nslookup and set q=mx works on the local CentOS Bind server but from the windows client it doesn't?

Thanks!
