We host the primary DNS for wall-2-wall.com (pridns.artejano.com) with our
ISP acting as secondary (dns2lo.highwayone.net). DNS for designwall.co.uk is
hosted with luxminet.net/simpledns.org but I set up the records through a
web interface (it's a cobalt box).

I've given 24 hours... which is to say that I tried almost straight away but
it still isn't working now. I'm using the same DNS as I have for other
hosted sites. The only difference between this site and 15 others that ARE
working correctly is that I'm using a shared IP address for this.

Thanks again
