Is there anyone out there that could tell me what the heck I'm doing wrong?? I just recently set up my dns server but all of my domains are not resolving, when I test (garciagutters.com) using www.mydnsstuff.com I get the following errors:

FAIL Mismatched glue ERROR: Your nameservers report glue that is different from what the parent servers report. This will cause DNS servers to get confused; some may go to the IP provided by the parent servers, while others may get to the ones provided by your authoritative DNS servers. Problem record(s) are:

dns1.charmedmarketing.net.:
Parent server (a.gtld-servers.net) says A record is 208.109.211.118, but
authoritative DNS server (208.109.211.118) says it is 208.109.211.188

dns1.charmedmarketing.net.:
Parent server (a.gtld-servers.net) says A record is 208.109.211.118, but
authoritative DNS server (208.109.211.197) says it is 208.109.211.188

This is my zone file for garciagutters.com

Code: 
$TTL 42300
garciagutters.com.       IN      SOA     garciagutters.com.       dns.charmedmarketing.net.      (
                        2002090501      ; year, todays date and serial number
                        8H              ; refresh, seconds
                        2H              ; retry, seconds
                        1W              ; expire, seconds
                        1D )            ; minimum, seconds

        IN      NS      dns1.charmedmarketing.net.
        IN      NS      dns2.charmedmarketing.net.
        IN      MX      10 mail.garciagutters.com.
        IN      TXT     "v=spf1 a mx ptr ~all"

garciagutters.com.	IN	A       208.109.211.188
www		IN	A       208.109.211.188
www2		IN	A       208.109.211.188

ftp		IN	A       208.109.211.188
mail		IN	A       208.109.211.188

And this is the master zone file (charmedmarketing.net)

Code: 
$TTL 42300
charmedmarketing.net.       IN      SOA     charmedmarketing.net.       dns.charmedmarketing.net.      (

                        2H              ; retry, seconds
                        1W              ; expire, seconds
                        1D )            ; minimum, seconds

        IN      NS      dns1.charmedmarketing.net.
        IN      NS      dns2.charmedmarketing.net.
        IN      MX      10 mail.charmedmarketing.net.
        IN      TXT      "v=spf1 a mx ptr ~all"

charmedmarketing.net.	IN	A       208.109.211.188
dns1		IN	A       208.109.211.188
dns2		IN	A       208.109.211.197
www		IN	A       208.109.211.188
ftp		IN	A       208.109.211.188
mail		IN	A       208.109.211.188
zeus		IN	A       208.109.211.188

And this is the reverse file zone

Code: 
$TTL 86400
@		IN	SOA	charmedmarketing.net. root.charmedmarketing.net. (
			2002090501; serial
			28800; refresh
			14400; retry
			3600000; expire
			86400); ttl

	IN	NS      dns1.charmedmarketing.net
	IN	NS      dns2.charmedmarketing.net
118	IN	PTR	charmedmarketing.net.
197	IN	PTR	charmedmarketing.net.

I also registered on godaddy my own dns.
For charmedmarketing.net I have its dns like this

dns1.charmedmarketing.net - 208.109.211.118
dns2.charmedmarketing.net - 208.109.211.197

And for garciagutters.com just points to:
dns1.charmedmarketing.net and
dns2.charmedmarketing.net

Can someone please point me in the right direction, I have searched on google a lot for Mismatched glue dns problem but I have been unable to figure out how to fix it...

Thank You

Sure, read it carefully again and you can. You told godaddy the last digits of the nameserver address is 118, but in your own zone file for charmedmarketing.net you published 188.

It can't be both. Fix the one that's wrong.
I just recently set up my dns server but all of my domains are not resolving, when I test (garciagutters.com) using www.mydnsstuff.com

For me www.mydnsstuff.com doesn't resolve. Do you mean www.dnsstuff.com? If so, then you probably should start using some other tools, as dnsstuff.com (also known as dnsreport.com) now requires a paid membership after a few test uses. So if you use it in the future you'll only be able to get help from those of us who've paid to use it.
I get the following errors:

FAIL Mismatched glue ERROR: Your nameservers report glue that is different from what the parent servers report.

That's due to the typo I've mentioned above.

We've found no other alternatives. domaintools.com doesn't offer the same kind of information as dnsstuff.com, and they, too, charge for anything over a limited basic lookup.

I've posted the alternatives question on various professional lists and forums, and so far haven't found a satisfactory alternative.

At some point I'll probably bite the bullet and buy a membership in dnsstuff as I see no other alternative.

Jeff
 
Yes, but there's no one tool that does what DNSReport does; you'd have to know exactly what you wanted to run.

dns report

Here is a place that has a free dns report, I use it quite a bit.
http://www.mypackets.com

I had an issue with the "connect to mail server" test but it might be my server. I use mailenable for what it's worth.

Good Luck
