    Exclamation DNS error [Name server setup]

    Hello,
    I'm new to Web hosting Talk forums and also VPS hosting newbie. I've problem setting up name servers. I'd tried to setup up name servers but they're not working.

    Details are,

    Code:
    Domain Name: wordrumble.com
    Main IP (shared IP) also IP for this domain: 209.40.198.70
    
    NameServer1: dns1.wordrumble.com    
    IP: 209.40.192.236
    NameServer2: dns2.wordrumble.com
    IP: 209.40.197.69
    I've added name servers in my domain CP, I've also redirected domain to IP 209.40.198.70 but nothing seems to work.
    Please check and tell whats wrong in my configuration and how can I overcome it.

    Any help regarding this will be appreciated greatly.

    Thanks

    How do they not appear to be working? If you just made the DNS change, it can take up to 24 hours depending on your ISP.

    If you go to DNS Report (http://www.dnsreport.com) and put in your domain name, you will see that the name servers are responding correctly... although with a few minor errors.

    Thanks Pat H for replying in this thread, I've setup 38 hours ago and I'm still waiting...
    Can you please explain these 'minor' errors that you told and how can I fix them.

    Going by the current warnings at DNSReport, the first one is the "Open DNS Servers" the explanation for that is stated there, along with the fix (http://member.dnsstuff.com/info/opendns.php)

    The second error "Single Point of Failure" don't worry about it, doesn't effect the running of your websites correctly. The third and forth errors are to do with SOA (In your domains Zone file) again these are fine as they are. The fifth error "Reverse DNS entries for MX records" I would strongly suggest correcting as soon as you can, again the explanation is on the site so either email/ticket your provider with the appropriate information for them to configure an RDNS for your server.

    And the last error "SPF record" again the explanation is there and isn't an urgent matter.

    wordrumble.com is now showing fine in dnsstuff.com. It seems apache is not running on the server.

    * What were you thinking?

    wordrumble.com has dns pointed to a supremecenter server. Your dns was changed by you to fairwindweb.net but you have not adjusted your CPanel to reflect it. This could cause you problems! Now you are trying to transfer wordrumble.com to a spry.com virtual server. First you must fix your dns at supremecenter to reflect the change to fairwindweb.net. Then you must change the dns from fairwindweb.net to spry.com where you are trying to create a website. fairwindweb.com has good support and they will assist you with that. Spry.com has limited support and could be a challenge for you if you are inexperienced.

    Hi,

    You have not properly configured the zone of sieunhanh.vn. The nameservers are not showing the glue properly. Contact your registrar regarding this.

    It seems the there is no zone file for sieunhanh.vn on the server. Try adding the zone file or create the account on the server.

    run this script and try the command below

    /scripts/fixndc

    dig @localhost sieunhanh.vn

    If there is still issue, try deleting the zone file from WHM and add again.
