I am not sure what you mean.  The # of the machine that my secondary in is 
216.32.58.7 which is also the # of jtinternet.com.  Although shortly I am 
going to make jtinternet.com a site that only deals with dedicated servers so 
it will be on its own #.  ns2.jtinternet.com will remain as 216.32.58.7.  
Should I change jtinternet.com's IP now?  I will go ahead and make sure my 
cache.db file is up to date.

 cache.db is not a file that the nameserver produces itself, you have to
 install it manually.  It's the root server hints file that you can download
 from <ftp://ftp.rs.internic.net/domain/named.root>.
 
 The message about jtinternet.com says that you have the server configured
 as a slave, with the master address being the machine's own address.  That
 makes no sense.
