[cobalt-users] DNSconfig questions

[SteelHead <brk@xxxxxxxx>]

OK, I am almost ready to run.  I have a dozen siyes going on this box to
begin.  Now come the *important* things.

I will run the box off of a dsl line as a demo host to bring sites into play
as they are developed.
with a static IP to use. Using  http://www.discountdomainregistry.com/ (DDR)
as my registrar, where do I begin the propogation process that will bring
the sites online.  I can put whatever names's I wish into the database at
DDR, but I am not sure if I should add the primary name for the server
itself.  I have 3 private nameservers, and things were supposidly propigated
2 weeks ago, but I still get nada.

a whois request returns the following:  (modified for security at this time)
Whois Server Version 1.3
snip
   Domain Name: mydomain.COM
   Registrar: TUCOWS, INC.
   Whois Server: whois.opensrs.net
   Referral URL: http://www.opensrs.org
   Name Server: DNS1.zzzzzzzz.ORG
   Name Server: NS.xxxxxxx.NET
   Name Server: ccccc.vvvvv.NET
   Updated Date: 21-may-2001
>>> Last update of whois database: Wed, 20 Jun 2001 02:11:53 EDT <<<

the info is correct, as far as it can be, but I get nothing on a ping
request, suggesting the name is not propagated correctly.

Please advise me.
