Sorry, 
Before the server would respond (running tcpdump)
"icmp-host-prohibited" to everything coming in on port
53 . Now it seems to respond with something. 
"host mydomain.ie" returns "Host mydomain cannot be
found 2(SERVFAIL)" 
/var/log/messages shows: "named: lame server resolving
'mydomain' in 'mydomain'?): 194.125.X.X
I can get one of my virtual domain to resolve. 
Still my primary domain will not resolve, nor any host
names on the network (even it's own hostname).

 
When trying to SSH using putty I get connection
refused. 
When I started up machine I noticed that ssh not
listening on port. Tried to start daemon and get
following message:
 "sshd: Privilege separation user sshd does not exist"
