Now blog works!
I had the blog working with my DNS at home by adding the following line to my zone file:
blog CNAME ghs.google.com.
I restarted bind9 with:
/etc/init.d/bind9 restart
And everything seemed to do right. At least I thought so.
A couple days later I tried to go to http://blog.superhertz.com from the LAN at work. This completely failed since the secondary DNS server for superhertz.com also happens to be the DNS server on my work's LAN and was not updated when I made my changes. In order for the primary DNS to update the secondary DNS, the serial number must change in the zone file.
I changed the serial number to today's date and viola, the DNS logs show that it notified the secondary server of the new zone. Now I can read my own blog from work.
