When making DNS changes on the DNS screen, you have have to restart bind for them to take effect? And if so how do I do that? I had them add reverse DNS for mail.mydomain.com (where "mydomain" is an example), but doing some dnsstuff checks it says no A record exists for mail.mydomain.com. But when I added the domain as an A record, DA added all the normal A records too (such as www, mail, etc, all to the same ip, and the MX record too. So I am thinking maybe I have to restart this bind thing (whatever it is). Not making sense why it says no A record, since all my A records are in my NS's, (which dsnstuff finds by the way).
 
Hey,

Restart or reload bind by going to the "Service Monitor" link in "Admin Tools".

Reload is probably what you want.
