I have been using a free DNS service for the past seven (7) years. This morning, at 4 A.M., , I changed the "A" record for one of my web sites, to point to an IP address on a different server, so I could test. After watching the TTL count down from 3600 to zero, with the "dig" command, it then reset to 3600, but still resolved to the original IP address. :-) I set the "A" record back to the original IP address and filed a Support Ticket with that company, but if they cannot get this to work properly again, I need a new DNS service that is free. Recommendations? (BTW, the Domain is registered with GoDaddy, but not hosted there, so it appears I cannot use their "Total DNS" service). TIA!

Why not your own dns of the box? I use godaddy to point traffic to my server and it does dns for my domains on it's own...i am using virtualmin. I don't know which free dns service you are using now. I don't know if opendns allows that kind of flexibility. dyndns might work(unless that's who youa re using now). everydns is now owned by dyn..
