Hi all. Last night I got rndc working and now it seems the server is
running as it should be. However, when I try resolving my domain from a
machine other than mine, on a different network, it still isn't found.
This means that I have still not been noticed by the root servers. I
don't remember who said this, but what was mentioned was that the
proppogation time had to do with the way your zone file was written.
Would the MINTTL field of the SOA record by any chance have something to
do with this? Currently, I have my serial number set to yyyymmdd format,
refresh is 1H, retry is 2H, expire is 1W, and TTL is 1D. I assume that
since TTL is set to 1 day that it can take up to 24 hours to proppogate,
and that if I want to reduce this time I should reduce the TTL field? Am
I still going wrong on something here? P.S: Thanks for all the replies
so far!

Hello,
Actually, if you have bind configured properly and dig works right on your local machine, there really isn't anything you can do. It can take 24 to 48 hours for dns information to propogate, and sometimes even longer if values have been cached by the machine your testing from.

Hi there. Yeah the machine I'm testing from isn't caching anything,
because up to now I get the host not found message. However using my
nameserver everything works as it should.

About your serial number: be sure to change it, every time you alter the
zone. That probably means you have to add another digit. I generally
use:
yyyymmddvr
So, I end up with serial numbers such as "2004020101", "2004020102".
I also usually use short TTLs, at least until I'm sure the domain is
stable (such as 3h).
Not that this is your problem, as I kind of suspect it isn't.
Does the whois record for your domain, correctly indicate your IP address
as the domain name server(s)?

Yeah that's probably part of it...My whois information hasn't even
proppogated yet.
