The aim is to make it authoritive as well as hosting my web sites
but a authoritive nameserver don't need nor should it do recursion for foreign zones, it only should respond for the zones he is authoritative for and so the behavior is correctly, make sure it answers for your zones and the point your domains to your nameservers (at least TWO) and you are done

The not so good news is that there are a few problems which could be interconnected. My server is called server1.sportshost.co.uk and its ip address is 84.92.56.54. Going on to whatsmydns.net I find that sportshost.co.uk returns suitable entries under the NS and SOA section. There are nothing but red crosses under A records section - I was expecting my ip address. Then when I dig a domain name like google.co.uk I get suitable replies but when I dig an ip address like 8.8.8.8 the request gets the reply REFUSED. Further enquiries show that I dont have an open recursive site when the errors above still apply. When I change my /etc/bind/named.conf.local file from 'recursion no;' to 'recursion yes;' I get an inverse of the above. I get full replies from all my dig enquiries but I get an open recursive warning - which I obviously dont want. whatsmydns.net replies remain the same. So todays question is - what do I need to do to keep my server closed, get proper dig replies and get my A records showing up on whatsmydns.net? Or is everything working well and its not necessary to have dig providing proper replies?
