Hello all,

I have recently made a DNS entry via the DNS admin inside of DA. This was for a pre-exsisting account that had been working fine for years and I only added an 'A' record. I inserted the following:

mtbg.preferredchoicemtg.com. A 24.126.11.xxx < (hidden for privacy)

However 3 days after doing so, this does not resolve for my client. The error when it's pinged from multiple computers on different ISP's:

"Ping request could not find host mtbg.preferredchoicemtg.com. Please check the name and try again."

I have checked the named.conf files and the entry *IS* located within them properly. I am running Bind 9.2.4. I have also noticed when I'm logged onto the server via SSH, I can ping that properly and it works. But when I'm at any given other PC it doesn't work.

Help! Ideas??
 
It appears that 24.126.11.182 is not a ping able ip address from outside the local network. You need to talk to your host about this.

It also appears you are using the wrong ip address since preferredchoicemtg.com is on 69.64.171.88 which is not on the same network as 24.126.11.182
 
Check logs for errors:

Type

service named reload

and then look in /var/log/messages to see if any errors are occuring
