Hi,

I am getting follwing error.

IMPORTANT: Do not ignore this email.
The hostname (host.mydomain.com) resolves to . It should resolve to 66.xx.xx.xx. Please be sure to correct /etc/hosts as well as the 'A' entry in zone file for the domain.

Some are all of these problems can be caused by
/etc/resolv.conf being setup incorrectly. Please check this file if you
believe everything else is correct


I have added the A entry for my host name using WHM , /etc/hosts looks ok.

I couldn't find the problem. Any suggestion would be appreciate.

Thanks

Go into a console and check it manually:

host -t a host.yourdomain.com 127.0.0.1

Check BIND's zone files as well. If all seems to be in order, restart BIND manually and see if the problem persists.
