We're BackWell that was a frickin' mess. If you haven't noticed, this site has been inaccessible for the last several hours (about 10 or so). I've been racking my brain trying to figure it out, knowing it was a DNS issue on the server (as I could get on via IP, but not domain), but I could NOT for the life of me figure out what it was. I e-mailed my partner-in-crime who is the billing contact on this server, but couldn't get ahold of her. And since my laptop is still in the shop, I didn't have a local copy of her phone number (it's all in Sunriver) or account information so I could contact our host myself. So I e-mailed around, posted on some support forums, and e-mailed our host's support desk, got a response, and apparently a cPanel upgrade yesterday bulldozed the named.conf file. A few simple commands and we were good to go. Too bad I didn't find that forum post about 8 hours ago. So if anybody has any e-mail they've been trying to send me, please re-send it as it might not have gotten through. Posted by Jake on 11/20/05 @ 11:12 PM

Patrick said on 11/23/05 @ 09:14 AM: The problem with the named.conf file is that you might not notice right away... until the peering DNS servers started dropping the cache. PS - most email servers will attempt to mail for up to 4 days by default... and man when it starts flowing again - look out. Jake said on 11/23/05 @ 09:50 AM: Yeah, that's what we ran into, Patrick, is that local DNS servers were caching the proper data, so I couldn't see that anything was wrong. It was when the DNS servers started cleaning out that I had to worry. Post a comment |
