I am trying to relate the problem I've got with some Webmin Bind settings I tried.
I am getting now the following answer to nslookup (named is running):
"Can't find server name for address 127.0.0.1"

Thank you for any support,

Dan

Forget the previous message

DNS server address are located in file /etc/resolv.conf

If you are running named, enter the local IP address instead of 127.0.0.1 that cannot be resolved(ptr)
