DNS server doesn't see itself

Hi

I have just set up a fresh DNS server on my windows box, and set 127.0.0.1 as the preferred server on its networking.

When I run nslookup it says:

***default servers are not available***
Default server: Unknown
Address : 127.0.0.1

What have I done wrong or not yet done that this isn't working?

Thanks

M
 
Put in the server's actual IP address. Don't use 127.0.0.1.

You'll also have to make sure your Reverse Lookup Zone is created and
populated.
