<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi all,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I set up my DNS and have let it propagate
around the world for a few days. I thought I had set up my MX records
correctly but apparently not. Here is all my DNS
information...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>IP: 66.11.182.5</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>domain: cbits.ca</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>machine name: penguin.cbits.ca</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Initially my IP resolved to jay.tor.istop.com but I
asked my ISP to change that to penguin.cbits.ca. I have set up the nameservers
where I registered the domain to point to my machine and istops
nameservers.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>NS1 = penguin.cbits.ca</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial
size=2>IP = 66.11.182.5</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>NS2 = ns.istop.com </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>IP =
66.11.168.199</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm going to change the second one to everydns.net
but for now I just wanna fix the DNS information on my box. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Here is my named.conf file. I have put an entry for
both cbits.ca AND penguin.cbits.ca. Is this necessary or can I get rid of the
penguin.cbits.ca.?</FONT></DIV>
