Hai,

My domain name has not propagated well I guess and because very recently few of my clients said that they are not able to view my domain contents. In other words, the domain is not directed to the server all of a sudden, but lands up in some other domain parking place.

Whose issue is this ? Is it because of my Domain Registrar .. What can I do to make it fine .. ?


And why did this happen all of a sudden ?

There should be many problems in your issue. Can you let us know the domain name so we can look up ?

I second VVIP - without the domain we would be of little help...

did it expire? Check to make sure you paid your bill, that would be my first guess.

dnsstuff.com and dnsreport.com are very usefull remote checking websites to confirm

Actually, i have got a PM from the OP with the domain. The problem is not in domain, it's registration or propagation. It could be a network error, as the IP was unreachable when I've tried to traceroute it.

His website seems to work from here.

I suppose it was nameservers' propagation because he is registering his domain name as nameservers. And we know that could take more time to propagate than using pre-enregistered nameservers.

When someone makes a change to a DNS record, is just that changed field propagated to all the DNS servers or is the entire record propagated?

What I am getting at is, why not make some edits to your DNS record to force a repropagation. Maybe some DNS servers never received your last set of updates?

I am just speculating here so someone who knows for real, please step in!
