[ale] Bind newbie question

[James P. Kinney III]

Since your stuff is likely similar to mine, the issue is that your
domain server is not a registered domain server anywhere. It is not on
any other list of domain servers. Therefore, it is a security risk to
allow a potentially bogus server online with any real authority.

The solutions is to pay the $20 and get the advanced DNS so you can edit
your zone files on GoDaddy's name servers.

If you find a better way please update this :)
