domain nameservers are changed over and domain is added in hosting as usual.
everything should check out... from the checkdns site I get the following...
CheckDNS.NET is asking root servers about authoritative NS for domain
Got DNS list for 'flyingink.co.uk' from ns6.nic.uk or ns6.nic.uk
Found NS record: ns1.rocketflow.com[130.94.75.209], was resolved to IP address by e.gtld-servers.net
Found NS record: ns2.rocketflow.com[72.35.75.201], was resolved to IP address by e.gtld-servers.net
Domain has 2 DNS server(s)
so far so good........... but then
CheckDNS.NET is verifying if NS are alive
DNS server ns1.rocketflow.com[130.94.75.209] is alive, but not authoritative for domain 'flyingink.co.uk' and didn't return SOA
DNS server ns2.rocketflow.com[72.35.75.201] is alive, but not authoritative for domain 'flyingink.co.uk' and didn't return SOA
0 server(s) are alive
No DNS servers alive, tests stopped
I have no idea what the above means I'm afraid... nor what an SOA is.
As I said normally I just add my domains as I have done in the past and they work fine after just a few hours.
I know .co.uk's can take 24 hours or so, but this problem has been going on for 2 weeks.
The only further help checkDNS can give (clicking the little ? icon next to the result) is :
CheckDNS received an answer to the query. However, the DNS server indicates that it DOES NOT host the domain (does not have a zone copy).
Usually this is a problem, because this DNS server will not be able to serve queries when other DNS servers responsible for the domain will be down.
Again, I have no idea what this means, but there seems to be some guys in this thread who know their onions....
can someone please help?
