Dear other DirectAdmin users,

I'm setting up 2 servers with multiserver setup. Both servers have it working but i have one problem. If i create a domein on 1 server, the other does take the settings over, but it looks like the DNS is not reachable, but the port is open...


DOMAIN: mortydot.com
NAMESERVER SET:
ns1.mortydot.com
ns5.mortydot.com

SUMMARY:
---------------------------------------------------------
: could not get an SOA from nameserver 'ns5.mortydot.com [195.216.246.2]'
---------------------------------------------------------



NAMESERVER: ns1.mortydot.com

checking data for mortydot.com on nameserver 'ns1.mortydot.com [91.192.36.88]'

checking SOA Record:
SOA origin: ns1.mortydot.com
SOA mail: root.mortydot.com
SOA serial: 2008053001
SOA refresh: 14400
SOA retry: 3600
SOA expire: 1209600
SOA minttl: 86400

checking NS Records:
NS: ns1.mortydot.com
NS: ns5.mortydot.com

---------------------------------------------------------

NAMESERVER: ns5.mortydot.com

checking data for mortydot.com on nameserver 'ns5.mortydot.com [195.216.246.2]'

checking SOA Record:


: could not get an SOA from nameserver 'ns5.mortydot.com [195.216.246.2]'



What could the problem be?

It appears that your DNS is pointing to ns1.mortydot.com and to ns2.mortydot.com.

Since ns2.mortydot.com and ns5.mortydot.com are two different servers; DNS is probably looking in the wrong place.

Changed that, but stil no changes

* secondary name server "ns5.mortydot.com." [BROKEN]
Failure: name server at 195.216.246.2 cannot be reached: (unknown error)
The name server could not be contacted, which may be due to temporary
technical problems or global DNS configuration mistakes. The internal
error is shown, but not always clear about the cause.
Looks like the server does not anser, but the if i ping the IP/firewall port, its open. The service is running as wel on the "not working" server/

Any other options or places I can check that settings are still fine?

Kinds regards
 
Is the server at 195.216.246.2 under your control? Is it running BIND? If it's not your server, or if you don't know if it's running BIND, then why are you attempting to use it?

Dear jlasman,

195.216.246.2 is under my control, bind is running, and the firewall is open.
I have set up the muli server thing and tested it on both sites. It seems to been working fine.

But every time when I'm trying to get DNS data from it trough a domein controle check, it fails, just if the server does not anser!

I cant figer out what the problem could be...
Any sugestions?
 
If it can't be reached from the outside world then either it's not running, it's not answering on public IP#s, or the proper port number (should be UDP port 53), or the firewall isn't open for UDP port 53 in both directions.

Or it's being blocked somewhere else on the 'net, but I doubt that.
