Fresh install of Vesta and Ubuntu - No domains work

[fly]

So I'm trying to use Vesta and am having a couple of strange issues.

Hardware:
t2.micro instance on AWS running Ubuntu 14 LTS. Its a fresh build of Ubuntu, fully updated, rebooted, all that jazz.

The first issues I had was that IP tables rules were blank. I fixed that with the thread listed here:
viewtopic.php?f=10&t=6601

I'm also having a problem where the domains don't work most of the time. They're resolving to the server IP, so DNS is working. But the site(s) never load. I just get an error from the browser that the site isn't there. Sometimes it will work, most of the time, it doesn't.

Vesta Control Panel
Once the private nameservers registration is complete, you need to configure Vesta Control Panel.
1. Add domain yourdomain.com (leave DNS Support mark checked)
2. Go to DNS menu
3. Click on edit under yourdomain.com
4. Change template to child-ns
5. Go to Packages menu
6. Edit package called default
7. Set ns1.yourdomain.com and ns2.yourdomain.com as nameservers

After you have done all steps, you can now set all of your domain names to use ns1.yourdomain.com and ns2.yourdomain.com. Please note that it may take up to 24 hours while dns records will start working.

I'm not using the DNS server. DNS is hosted elsewhere.
