Re: [cobalt-developers] DNS and E-mail

Hi Ervin,

You have transferred the DNS entries from one DNS server to another, but
have you thought to update the entry for domainA.com at your registrar.

try to do a whois on domainA.com

An other possibility that happens a lot with Bind name servers is that it
hasn't been restarted/reloaded after a change has been made. In this case
the entry has been correctly written down, but haven't been read by the
named daemon.
