Would you consider sending me your zone files for both mamma.com and for
mrsmom.com?

If you don't want to send them onlist then please send them to me
privately (they're really not that private, I could even go get them
myself, but I'd rather just let you send them to me, IF you want me to
check this out for you).

If you're using the RaQ for DNS, then they should be called:

/etc/named/pri.mrsmom.com

and

/etc/named/pri.mamma.com

and then I can look at these to see if they're right (what you wrote
above is a bit confusing to me, I must admit).

Can you also send me the relevant virtual server blocks from your
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file?  I'd rather you NOT send the whole
file; just the relevant blocks, but if you think there may be a problem
in the file as a whole, or if you're not sure which blocks to send, then
you can send the whole file.

Then I can take a look at it and try to get to the bottom of the problem
for you <smile>.

You should NOT have to wait as long as you've not asked for that
particular subdomain earlier the same day from any computer attached to
the same nameserver as the nameserver you're checking with.
