It's normal as you're trying to resolve a domain with the named "cdrdoamin".
By the way nslookup is deprecated. You should better use dig.

I am facing a new problem .I have disabled iptables ,selinux but still not able to access dns from other computers in network.
even- nc (my ip) 53 is not working but nc localhost 53 is working.
Hopefully a firewall problem.
Can anyone give any suggestions.

If you have disabled iptables, then it's not a firewall problem. Check if named listens on your servers' public IP:
Code:
netstat -tunap|grep 53

localhost is not your public ip. And you didn't post the output of netstat...

nc [my ip] 53 is also not working

netstat -tunap|grep 53

I have hosted httpd service (apache on my computer).It could be accessed by other computers in network.But I m not able to find why bind is not exposed to the network even after disabling firewalls,selinux.

It looks like dnsmasq is running and listens on port 53. If you want to use bind you should disable dnsmasq and make sure it's not starting on boot.

Cheers
