Missing Domain

[tlarson]

Hello - I purchased a credit for DNS/1 Month yesterday and added my domain. This morning when I logged in, my domain was missing from the control panel. Username: tlarson / domain: laquintaca.gov

hi there

I have added the domain back and loaded the lst zone back up available.... The issue is the domain laquintaca.gov is not yet a registered domain name. are you registering the domain now?

thanks
sandy

Hi Sandy -

I am working with the Federal dotgov registrar, and they will not finish the registration process until they validate the nameservers have SOA for the domain. Its weird, and they dont provide much help...

its on dns2 and 3 now and will propagate out to dns1 very soon:
dig @dns3.zoneedit.com a laquintaca.gov

; <<>> DiG 9.8.3-P1 <<>> @dns3.zoneedit.com a laquintaca.gov
; (1 server found)

Hi Sandy -

I just tried to validate on their site, and it failed again. I am kind of over my head on this, but there isn't anyone else on my team who can do this. Any thoughts?

i removed dns1 from the domains delegation. it can take several hours for all nameservers to update. Hopefully this will help when they try again

thanks
