Here's the situation:

My customer's web site is setup on my server.

The domain nameserver was changed to point to my nameservers.

Dig and nslookup reports ok to my IP

http and FTP still goes to the previous web host.

What could be wrong with this?

I've checked and double checked the DNS record. It's the same as all my other sites.

Here's the site http://www.unlimiteddesign.org

Any suggestions is appreciated.

Has the DNS been switched?

The two listed NameServers are:

NS1.DEPENDABLEWEBHOST.COM 216.12.209.33
NS2.DEPENDABLEWEBHOST.COM 216.12.209.183

and the output of the dig against ns1 is:


; <<>> DiG 2.2 <<>> @NS1.DEPENDABLEWEBHOST.COM unlimiteddesign.org axfr
; (1 server found)

I don't see an ftp record in there at all...but the www record is pointing to: 216.12.209.185. Is that the right IP address or the old one?

Also, NS2 did not respond to dig queries at all.

It's the right IP.

Thanks guys. Seem to be working now.

Very strange.

Thanks a bunch.

It can take a few days for everything to update over the net, which I'm guessing was the prob here.
