Hi Derek,

  Thank you very much. Sure enough, a call to the registrar and the ips
finally became updated - seconds later everything started pouring in. Whew!
  I misunderstood DNS in this scenario. My understanding was that an update
of the DNS broadcast from my server would automatically update everything
out there. I suppose now that I think about it more a manual update to the
*authoritative* nameserver seems reasonable. I noticed that
non-authoritative nameservers for the other domains I host automatically
snapped into place once the authoritative one got back in line.
   Thanks again!

 Your registrar for the domain maintains actual IP's for your
authoritative DNS servers.  If you moved those from one IP to another,
update the registrars record to reflect the new addresses.

Hello,

   I changed the ip address of my server (physical move to a new location)
and updated my dns. Logs show that everything is fine. I can get out to
other sites just fine, send email, and internally everything is working
fine. However, I updated on Jan 1st and the changes for the nameservers
have
still not propagated out anywhere. Logs show no one hitting the server.
I'm
starting to get worried.
   The db file has this data:

               2007010101      ; Serial (year,month,day,version_that_day)
               86400           ; refresh (1 day)
               7200            ; retry (2 hours)
               8640000         ; expire (100 days)
               86400 )         ; minimum (1 day)

So after 1 day external DNS's should update to the new info.
   The only other bit of info that I can't figure out is that in the logs
I'm getting this message:

Jan  2 02:44:16 gouda /kernel: arplookup 10.1.10.1 failed: host is not on
local network

but 10.1.10.1 has nothing to do with my network, so I have no idea which
service is trying to get to this. I grepped all etc and usr/local/etc bu
nothing have that ip.

Finally, nslookup is working on any address including my own. Thats makes
me
think DNS is working properly... Any ideas on what else I can check that
might not be right?

Thanks
