[cobalt-users] DNS - Is it working?



Another simple (I think) question from a newbie.

Is there any simple way to test if a DNS is working properly?
I've finished configuring my Raq3i (ns1.hooverfence.com - 63.163.243.2) as a
NS and registered www.erikhoover.net (63.163.243.60) with it as its primary
with Network Solutions.

Everything seems to be working properly, I did a dig on www.erikhoover.net
from an outside PC and it Authoritative answer was using ns1.hooverfence.com

BUT - The stupid light in the Services menu of the Cobalt GUI is still
dimmed.  Should I be alarmed that it is not lit green?

Please help!
