Hi All,
when I do
dig somedomain.org <http://somedomain.org>
I get:
; <<>> DiG 9.8.4-rpz2+rl005.12-P1 <<>> somedomain.org <http://somedomain.org> ;; global options: +cmd ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached
What is the "no servers" that could not be reached??
This can be returned if no DNS servers are registered against the domain name, or there are no glue records for the DNS servers. What happens if you do a
whois somedomain.org <http://somedomain.org>
Unlikely to be the problem. I have access to the registration record with namecheap and have set the dns servers entries there to point to the actual servers.
Do any DNS servers get returned?
Yes correct dns servers are returned, except that they are listed in UPPERCASE, where as if I do greenwareit, they are in lowercase!
Is that the problem????
Unlikely. My .id.au domains return DNS servers in lowercase form, but my (functional) .org domain returns the NS servers in uppercase. With the DNS servers that get returned by the whois lookup, can you do an SOA check? dig @ns1 somedomain.org SOA Sean
