Bind SERVFAIL status

Hey guys,

Well, here's my problem. I've installed bind, and it's running properly. I have successfully been able to set it as my DNS server for the Linux box and it works and goes into the outside world to find data about unknown zones. Goody. But that's where the good news ends.

Now, I am trying to add a new zone to the DNS server. I am trying my own domain that I currently have registered and hosted at Largenets: nokhrin.com. This is only experimental and will not affect anyone, only the Linux box. So: here's the issue:

Code:
lastochka root # dig @192.168.123.187 nokhrin.com

; <<>> DiG 9.2.2 <<>> @192.168.123.187 nokhrin.com

SERVFAIL, and I've no clue why. So, my configs:

named.conf
Code:
options {
        directory "/var/bind";

        // uncomment the following lines to turn on DNS forwarding,
        // and change the forwarding ip address(es) :
        //forward first;
        //forwarders {
        //      123.123.123.123;
        //      123.123.123.123;
        //};

        listen-on-v6 { none; };
        listen-on { 127.0.0.1; 192.168.123.187; };

        // to allow only specific hosts to use the DNS server:
        //allow-query {
        //      127.0.0.1;
        //};

        // if you have problems and are behind a firewall:
        //query-source address * port 53;
        pid-file "/var/run/named/named.pid";
};

zone "." IN {
        type hint;
        file "named.ca";
};

zone "localhost" IN {
        type master;
        file "pri/localhost.zone";
        allow-update { none; };
        notify no;
};

zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" IN {
        type master;
        file "pri/127.zone";
        allow-update { none; };
        notify no;
};

zone "123.168.192.in-addr.arpa" IN {
        type master;
        file "pri/192.168.123.zone";
        allow-update { none; };
        notify no;
};


// zones

zone "nokhrin.com" IN {
        type master;
        file "pri/nokhrin.com.zone";
        allow-update { none; };
        notify no;
};
This checks out using named-checkconf. Next:

pri/nokhrin.com.zone
Code:
$TTL 12h
@       IN      SOA     ns.nokhrin.com. admin (
        2004062413      ; serial
        3h              ; refresh
        3h              ; update
        1d              ; expire
        3h              ; minimum
)
                IN      NS      ns
ns              IN      A       192.168.123.187
nokhrin.com.    IN      A       192.168.123.187

;       IN      NS      ns1.nokhrin.com.
;       IN      NS      ns2.nokhrin.com.
;ns1    IN      A       192.168.123.187
;ns2    IN      A       192.168.123.187
;www    IN      A       192.168.123.187
Also checks out using named-checkzone nokhrin.com pri/nokhrin.com.zone from the appropriate directory. But, dig returns SERVFAIL.

Any suggestions?

Thanks a lot! I've tried searching the net for this, but of course, no help was found, yet.

Thanks,
Max
