is it normal that when you enter the adres of your nameserver NS1.DOMAIN.COM you get the standard apache setup page?

Bulkregister 'failed to connect to the nameserver I want a domain to point but everything seems correct. DNS is setup and account for domain is also there.

When I do a trace or whatever for NS1.DOMAIN.COM it gets to the reserved IP for the DNS on the server.

Why can't bulkregister connect to the DNS and why does a normal webpage come up?

thank you.

There are several reasons why this might be hapening. Is this a new DNS host or your change its IP recently? If you changed the IP, how long ago you did it?

What is most likely is that Apache is configured to serve the default web page on the virtual server for the IP that is assigned to your name server. Check the Apache configuration. BTW, what were you supposed to connect to?

Sounds like AP got it right.. What should you of seen if going to NS1.DOMAIN.COM did you want a site or just tring to ping it?
