I realize that it's not your issue. I was just re-pointing out a
misconfiguration that Stan pointed out. Unless you're using that DNS
server to provide DNS services within your network (I can only say
"wow!" if you are), it's pointless entry because no one external to
your network can reach that box with either "192.168.10.2" or
"paulandcilla.homelinux.org".
