Re: DNS Servers
I'm running bind, does that change my question? I was talking about the two DNS servers that are part of the network Config. I'm running Ubuntu 14.04lts /etc/network/interfaces contains a line : dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4 These are the name servers I asking about. Sorry for any confusion. Kevin Fries, on another project I've been using ZoneEdit for maybe 3 years with only a problems. Have not had an issue in maybe 2 years. Interface is easy to understand and pricing seems reasonable.

Re: DNS Servers
Thank you Stephen and Michael!! Sense I am running a server connected to Cox, is there any advantage of using Cox's DNS servers? Thanks!!
