Problem configure Bind9

["Christian Maier" <tomtailor@freesurf.fr>]

Hello!

I have installed bind9 and for now I have trouble configuring it. I
have done all steps discribed in some tuts. Digging google for exapmle
works pretty good (forwarders are ok I think) but digging example.com
fails.

dig example.com

; <<>> DiG 9.3.2 <<>> example.com
;; global options:  printcmd
;; Got answer:

;example.com.                   IN      A

I would be really happy if someone can help me, I played around several
hours but it still does not work.

Thanks
