[cobalt-users] Dummies Guide to DNS needed

["CSO Andrew Witham 526" <awitham@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

For the past couple of years I have had a RAQ2 dedicated server at a remote
hosted location.  Due to connectivity issues, the provider has moved me to a
new server, a RAQ3, and from a single IP address (216.65.142.5) to new ips
64.39.228.192/28 (the Server IPs = 64.39.228.194 - 64.39.228.206).

The sites were all moved across, and the RAQ3 appears to be correctly
configured (i.e. similar to the RAQ2, but substituting the new IP address
64.39.228.194 in place of 216.65.142.5), however the name server
NS1.SEARCHER.ORG cannot be found.

It has been several days, so I think it is a configuration problem rather
than propagation of the new IP address for NS1.SEARCHER.ORG (64.39.228.194).

I guess I have either missed a step in the conversion process, or used the
wrong IP address for the DNS server.  I am needing a real dummies guide to
fixing this!  I am neither Linux or TCP/IP literate.

Any help gratefully accepted!


Thanks
