Linux Help with DNS Configurations

Dear experts

I've managed to configure Blind, Zone files and i can view the domain that i created via nslookup and ping the domain on the same server.

Code:
Server:         41.216.x.xx
Address:        41.216.4.175#53
Name:           mail.eeee.co.zm
Address:        41.216.x.xx

However, when i move to other machines on the network i can't ping the domain mail.eeee.co.zm that i created but i can ping the IP address 41.216.x.xx;

I've checked in logs:

Code:
Jul  1 08:53:57 ns1 named[1086]: managed-keys-zone ./IN: loading from master file managed-keys.bind failed: file not found
Jul  1 08:53:57 ns1 named[1086]: running
Jul  1 08:53:58 ns1 kernel: em0: link state changed to UP
Jul  1 08:53:59 ns1 kernel: .

Kindly help

You will have to make sure your nameserver gets asked: either by entering it directly as the responsible nameserver in "/etc/resolv.conf" or by making the nameserver the "other machines on the network" use query the one serving this zone.

I hope this helps.
