you do know that you should have two SERVERS for your dns?
Giving two different IPs for your box will work. but is a very bad idea.
Even if everything else is on that machine, for some uses (eg. mail)
having no DNS data is worse than having a failed server.

That's probably because you haven't updated NS records at registrar. So
your server is configured correctly. But nobody asks it for information.
How to change it - most probably you have to login to the web panel for
the service, where you've ordered and paid for domain (that would be
godaddy I presume), and find your way there. Somewhere there should be
space for providing names of your nameservers, and IP addresses of them.
You'll need to do this for all your domains, but for rest of them names
will be enough.

Well, if only this site is SSL-enabled, all others are only HTTP, than
all can coexist on a single IP.

for TCP, UDP or both?

This will work only if you are designated nameserver for all 11.22.33/24
block, which I think is false. Otherwise you'll have to tell the one
that is (maybe your ISP, maybe even higher) to make changes.

First, as stated before, I doubt if anyone will ask your server for that
info. Second - what is the name of 11.22.33.44? Is it mydomain.com?
www.mydomain.com? ns1.mydomain.com? AFAIK there can be only one PTR record.

Probably nothing. If you can dig/nslookup on your host from external
hosts, then it looks they don't need to do anything.

Make sure your primary domain has correctly configured ns names AND IP
addresses. I'd advice dig ns mydomain.com @a.gtld-servers.net (or any
other name server for your TLD)

Those are the PTR records. For DNS you probably don't need them For
email you definitely do, for WWW probably not.
