I never had any probs with this, but strangly, now I have (first time for everything..)

I deleted a domain from the server, but when I want to drop the domain, I get an error wich states the name still is in DNS. Well, checking it ones, checking it twice (feel a tune coming up), but the domain really is gone from the server.

Anybody an idea what is wrong?
 
Than this will probaly be a dumb question, but nonetheless I do not know.
Where do I find those things? I have root acces and looked around, but did not find what you wrote down. Did find other files under 'files' but none named like you say.

But besides that, how can it be that the domain is not removed? I never had this problem before...

If you have root, login there - via SSH .. then

Code: 
cd /var/named
then
Code: 
ls -la
you might find the domain there - looking like domain.com.db
If so, remove the file with
Code: 
rm domain.com.db

then
Code: 
ls -al /etc/virtual |grep domain.com

then
Code: 
cat /etc/named.conf |grep domain.com
 
You can also remove the domain via DirectAdmin from the Admin level under DNS Administration.
