Dear Patrick

Are you sure your secondary DNS server actually works? I mean , my sites are
working perfect , WITHOUT the secondary DNS record.When I try to add a
Secondary Name Server for any domain , It comes up with an error : Domain
"mydomain.com" already defined. I referred to the knowledge base , and
Happily found a silimar question , which somebody had after installing the
new patch on his RAQ2...I contacted cobalt and they said that since that
revision , you can not have both Prim/Secon DNS servers on ONE cobalt (New
cobalts only)- (I have a RAQ3 with 96 IPs).
So I'd be more than happy if you can just make sure , if so please e-mail me
the OS revision you're using.

Best Regards.

Evan-
