Your SOA name server should be your master dns server, which in your case I believe, ns1.hospedevip.com.br. Do you have duplicate entries for ns1? like ns1 IN A some.ip.addr ns1 CNAME some.host.name. if so correct that. Let my just briefly explain what you need to do, you might have been done all of these, but I just want to make absolutely sure: 1. If you wish to run your own dns servers, you must first tell your domain registrar to update their record, to point their NS records to your servers. 2. You then need to set up authoritative servers, each name server must have its own A record, e.g.: @ IN NS ns1 @ IN NS ns2 ns1 IN A ip.add.1 ns2 IN A ip.add.2 3. The ip addresses used for ns servers can have other A records, and hence CNAME/SRV records associated with them with no problem, e.g: @ IN NS ns1 @ IN NS ns2 ns1 IN A ip.add.1 ns2 IN A ip.add.2 ftp IN A ip.add.1 www CNAME ns1. the above is correct and allowed. The above should get you going, try cut down the number of hosts first, when you are confident that your DNS is set up correctly, you can then add more hosts in. Hope all that helps. -- Joe -- Money can't buy everything. Sometimes money can't even buy a gun... -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
