Hi,
If you are working on real TLD, you have to change you dns server on the dns provider side.
If you made a whois of your domain name :
Example : http://generationip.com/whois?Whois=generationip.com
Whois Server Version 2.0
Domain names in the .com and .net domains can now be registered with many different competing registrars. Go to http://www.internic.net for detailed information.
Domain Name: GENERATIONIP.COM Registrar: EURODNS S.A Whois Server: whois.eurodns.com Referral URL: http://www.eurodns.com Name Server: NS1.EURODNS.COM Name Server: NS2.EURODNS.COM Status: clientTransferProhibited Updated Date: 05-mar-2009 Creation Date: 17-mar-2005 Expiration Date: 17-mar-2011
The named server define in this case is : Name Server: NS1.EURODNS.COM Name Server: NS2.EURODNS.COM
those name server are declared at AUTHORITY server's, if you must define new dns server, you have to change the named server of this zone to your new authority server.

Hi All,
i have DNS configured on my centos 5.2 server.
it's all working fine, right now i want to change the main public dns from one IP to another to do some testing (the new public dns ip has records which the old one doesnt have and it's done as such for testing)
so i got into /etc/resolv.conf and changed the first nameserver to the NEW public DNS. /etc/init.d/network restart /etc/init.d/named restart
when i issue an nslookup example.com ON the dns server, i get the exact IP i want to do testing on. but when i do nslookup example.com on the clients machine. the website resolves to another IP ( the one set in the initial public dns records)
is there any other changes i need to do for the DNS server redirects its requests to the new public dns ?
