Webmin Bind DNS Not Working: Probably my fault

Posted on June 24, 2019

This is my first attempt at using BIND DNS and Virtualmin. I have only ever set this up via CPanel.

I want to be able to manage DNS zones for a domain via Virtualmin.

I have pointed (via siteground) my URL at ns1(and ns2 and ns3).digitalocean.com

My URL, edcresearch.com, resolves to my droplet IP address.

Now, I want to be able to set up subdomains and things from Virtualmin. I added A record *.edcresearch.com to my droplet IP via Digital Ocean > Networking.

For testing purposes, I made test.edcresearch.com and pointed it at another Droplet. There is a master zone edcresearch.com on my webmin UI.

I get no host found via all the internet ping tool. I am assuming that I am doing something wrong.

Can anybody point me in the right direction?
