    Hi,

    It appears that you have everything configured correctly from the information you have provided.

    I confirmed that you have properly registered your name-servers with your registrar.

    http://intodns.com/theipnetwork.com

    It appears that your name-server (DNS) service is configured to allow anyone to recursively query your server. This is a potential security issue. Disable recursive queries or only allow your ip address to query the server.

    You would fix that by adding "recursion no;" to the options section of /etc/named.conf.
