Post subject:  Help setup bind DNS

How do you set up your new domain and put it on your on NS1 and NS2.
I have already registered NS1 and NS2 with the registrar.
This is my bind settings:

$ttl 38400
xtremesite.com. IN SOA ns1.xtremesite.com. lksoh.time.net.my. (
1066750026
10800
3600
604800
38400 )
xtremesite.com. IN A 64.62.190.100
www.xtremesite.com. IN CNAME xtremesite.com.
ns1.xtremesite.com. IN A 64.62.190.100
ns2.xtremesite.com. IN A 64.62.190.101
xtremesite.com. IN NS ns1.xtremesite.com.
xtremesite.com. IN NS ns2.xtremesite.com.

I'm no DNS guru but that record seems to be in order. Are you having problems with it?

It is important to note that DNS changes take time to propagate throughout the net. Sometimes as much as two or three days when changing DNS servers for a domain.

If you continue to have problems and all you need is DNS for your domain you might want to look at something like http://www.zoneedit.com/ they are free for up to 5 domains. This will give you a more reliable DNS server then trying to run one yourself.

It seems that the domain is not pointing to the name servers.

Instead it is pointing to ns1.okiehosting.com and ns2.okiehosting.com and those nameservers have no records for it.

Take a look at it shows the problems.

Are you still having trouble with this?

It appears that your site is now resolving correctly.

It does seem to be working.

Although it appears that ns2 is not responding also there is no MX record in the DNS record, which may create problems with recieving mail.

Could be that bind is not listening on that IP.
