Wow, it is amazing how many people have been able to register the domain
"mydomain.com". Posting the real domain name on this list will almost
always provide you with better and more accurate responses to your
questions. Of course, everything you get for suggestions are guesses
without a real domain name...
My vote is that negetive caching is the problem, as Kevin Darcy has
suggested.
You may also want to tail -f your syslog file and grep it for the domain
name in question while you are reloading the name server. If the zone is
taking errors, you will see them there (by default on most systems...)
Thanks,
Dave...

Hi,
i would really appreciate your help on this issue, since I wasn't able
to find anything about this. So, this is the scenario:
My server (ns0.mydomain.com) is set up as primary DNS Server for
www.mydomain.com. Everything seemed to work okay, until i tried to
create a subdomain, let's say mail.mydomain.com. I added a record into
the zone file,restarted the server .... and nothing happens. Pinging
the subdomain from outside results in "host unknown". I tried it with
another domain, it works there! Could please figure out what could be
the problem?
; Zone file for mydomain.com
$TTL 3D
@ IN SOA ns0.mydomain.com. office.mydomain.com. (
2002060801 ; serial, todays date + todays
serial #
8H ; refresh, seconds
2H ; retry, seconds
4W ; expire, seconds
1D ) ; minimum, seconds
IN NS ns0.mydomain.com. ; Inet Address of name
server
IN NS ns2.someother.com.
IN A 11.22.33.44
mail IN A 22.33.33.11 ; THIS DOESNT WORK (points
outside)
ns0 IN A 11.22.33.44
www IN A 11.22.33.44
Adding ANY subdomain for this domain results in failure. Any ideas?
Your help is greatly appreciated. I'm quite lost in this DNS problem.
I'm running BIND 9.2.0
Best Regards,
Lucas
