Hi. Sorry to jump in this thread late. But it looks like your upstream fried your DNS entries. I'ld strongly recommend you update your InterNIC records to point to DNS servers that *you* control, not anyone else. Because as you just found out, when DNS screwups occur, they take a lot of stuff with them, and not having direct control over those boxes is a monumental headache. Try restoring old .conf and zone files and do ndc reload. Good luck. :)
PS: You aren't getting any mail at centinet.com because it doesn't have an MX or A record!!!

Looking up your IP gives this: Official Name: BONIFACIO IP Address: 203.176.36.5 This will cause paranoid sites to reject connections to you. +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ | -=I T ' S P R I N C I P L E T H A T C O U N T S=- | |=- -=ALAN KEYES FOR PRESIDENT=- -=| | Balanced Budgets Personal Freedoms Morality Lower Tax | |=-- http://www.Keyes2000.com. --=| +———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————+
