RE: [cobalt-users] [RaQ3i] Random Missing DNS Entries

["Atomic Rhino" <atomicrhino@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I guess I should have stated that the reference to bestpage.com was an 
example, and not intended to be the domain I was referring to. It wouldn't 
matter if the example showed mydomain.com - the actual example as stated 
below was originally bestdamnpage.com, I just took out the damn.

Of course a DNS Lookup would not show what the problem is. Every time I find 
a missing entry, I add it back in, and it resolves as it should. The problem 
is on the box itself and why random DNS entries are erased.

Take any domain and one or multiple DNS entries for www. mail. forum. *. are 
erased on either the front end or on reverse lookup.

Again, an EXAMPLE would be:

 myhosteddomain.com               216.115.245.147
 mail.myhosteddomain.com          216.115.245.147
 216.115.245.147/24               mail.myhosteddomain.com
 216.115.245.147/24               www.myhosteddomain.com


Thanks again.

Certainly an unusual DNS record:

--- DNS lookup for "bestpage.com", please wait...
--- contacting nameserver: NS.MAIKON.NET [209.196.54.2]

bestpage.com	A	209.235.27.69
bestpage.com	MX	100  bestpage.com
bestpage.com	NS	ns.maikon.net
bestpage.com	NS	ns2.maikon.net
bestpage.com	SOA
    origin = ns.maikon.net
    mail addr = root@xxxxxxxxxx
    serial = 1999090600
    refresh = 600 (10 mins)
    retry = 360 (6 mins)
    expire = 86400 ()
    minimum ttl = 3600 (1 hour)
bestpage.com	NS	ns.maikon.net
bestpage.com	NS	ns2.maikon.net
bestpage.com	A	209.235.27.69
ns.maikon.net	A	209.196.54.2
ns2.maikon.net	A	209.235.54.2

--- dns lookup completed

I don't see mail.bestpage.com as the MX record. Did you create an A record
for  mail.bestpage.com          216.115.245.147 and then an MX record for
bestpage.com --> mail.bestpage.com?

Well  I've  got  one  for you all. Suddenly, and randomly, several DNS
entries  are  being erased. In short, one day they are there, the next
day they are not.


Here is an example

 bestpage.com               216.115.245.147
 mail.bestpage.com          216.115.245.147
 216.115.245.147/24         mail.bestpage.com
 216.115.245.147/24         www.bestpage.com
