Re: [cobalt-users] dns on raq3

[Will DeHaan <will@xxxxxxxxxx>]

On your RaQ 3 check adventureseekers.co.za's SOA record to verify that
the correct name servers are listed under primary and secondary NS
fields.  These servers must match up with those provided as primary and
secondary name servers to the name registration service.
