It must be a decade since I used this service last, and it looks exactly the same! All your config looks fine. I did a few nslookups against your servers for your ip6 zone and everything came up as expected. So you've done all the sensible things, so maybe a few silly suggestions might be appropriate... have you tried without the trailing '.' at the end of the nameserver name? Have you tried an IP address? It would be nice if it differentiated between "I don't like the name of the nameserver you have specified" and "there is something wrong with your dns records" (or more usefully - "this is wrong with your dns records") James

Has it had broken SSL for 10 years?

Thanks for that suggestion, it worked without the trailing dots!

Yes, lots of services have the problem of only having a single error message for many different errors. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/
