Slackware domain setup

Well... I have got following problem:

I have got Linux server connected to internet over router (LinksSys WRT54G).

This is config file fow my new domain (exmple: mynewdomain.com)

$TTL 3D
@ IN SOA ns1.mynewdomain.com. root.mynewdomain.com. (
199802151 ; serial, todays date + todays
serial #
8H ; refresh, seconds
2H ; retry, seconds
4W ; expire, seconds
1D ) ; minimum, seconds
;
TXT "mynewdomain.com, your DNS consultants"
NS ns1 ; Inet Address of name server
MX 10 mail ; Primary Mail Exchanger

localhost A 127.0.0.1

gw A x.x.x.x (router�s IP)
TXT "The router"

ns A x.x.x.x (extrnal IP - global IP)
MX 10 mail
www CNAME ns1

mail A x.x.x.x (extrnal IP - global IP)
MX 10 mail

ftp A x.x.x.x (extrnal IP - global IP)
MX 10 mail

This is file 127.0.0 :
$TTL 3D
@ IN SOA ns1.mynewdomain.com. root.mynewdomain.com. (
1 ; Serial
8H ; Refresh
2H ; Retry
4W ; Expire
1D) ; Minimum TTL
NS ns1.mynewdomain.com.
1 PTR localhost.

And this is named.conf:
options {
directory "/var/named";

// Uncommenting this might help if you have to go through a
// firewall and things are not working out. But you probably
// need to talk to your firewall admin.

// query-source port 53;
};

controls {
inet 127.0.0.1 allow { localhost; } keys { rndc_key; };
};

key "rndc_key" {
algorithm hmac-md5;
secret
"c3Ryb25nIGVub3VnaCBmb3IgYSBtYW4gYnV0IG1hZGUgZm9yIGEgd29tYW4K";
};

zone "." {
type hint;
file "root.hints";
};

zone "0.0.127.in-addr.arpa" {
type master;
file "pz/127.0.0";
};

zone "mynewdomain.com" {
type master;
notify no;
file "pz/mynewdomain.com";
};

When using command dig mynedomain.com axfr I get answer:
; > DiG 9.1.2 > mojadomena.com axfr
;; global options: printcmd
; Transfer failed.

What should I do?

Thanks!

Given the command you posted (dig mydomain.com axfr), the error message (Transfer failed) is usually a "permission denied". Meaning, you should specify which systems are allowed to issue a "axfr" using the "allow-transfer" option in your named.conf file. Example from my DNS server.

Code:

// Define any "internal view" dns secondaries that can pull copies of
// zones. Use "none" if you only have one dns server.
acl "xfer-int" {
        192.168.9.3;
};

...

// Load the internal mydomain.com zone
zone "mydomain.com" in {
        type master;                            // Zone is a master
        notify yes;                             // Send notifies?
        allow-transfer { xfer-int; };           // Only allow transfers from secondaries
        file "int/db.mydomain";                 // Load zone file
};
