Okay, I got the A records set back up again. Here's the important stuff I think.
Does it look right? ; cPanel first:11.44.1.18 (update_time):1468969397 Cpanel::ZoneFile::VERSION:1.3 hostname:franklin.jetbbs.com latest:11.56.0.28 ; Zone file for jetbbs.com $TTL 14400 jetbbs.com. 86400 IN SOA ns1.jetbbs.com. nslookup.jetbbs.com. ( 2016071710 ;Serial Number 43200 ;refresh 7200 ;retry 2419200 ;expire 86400 ;minimum ) jetbbs.com. 86400 IN NS ns1.jetbbs.com. jetbbs.com. 86400 IN NS ns2.jetbbs.com. jetbbs.com. 14400 IN A 104.238.117.105 jetbbs.com. 14400 IN A 132.148.11.44 localhost 14400 IN A 127.0.0.1 jetbbs.com. 14400 IN MX 0 jetbbs.com. www 14400 IN A 104.238.117.105 www 14400 IN A 132.148.11.44 ns1 14400 IN A 104.238.117.105 ns2 14400 IN A 132.148.11.44 franklin 14400 IN A 104.238.117.105 franklin 14400 IN A 132.148.11.44 There's more to the file but I left it out, because it's just the records for the whm / cPanel stuff and a few other things domain key TXT records, etc. I'm not sure if those are something that could be used to get into my server or not if I shared them. For the reverse DNS pointer records, I think when I contact GoDaddy, I'm going to ask if they can setup a PTR record so 104.238.117.105 points to franklin.jetbbs.com and 132.148.11.44 points to franklin.jetbbs.com as well. I think that'll help with mail filtering and stuff. Thanks.
