If your resolver is pointing to a server other than the one that you
modified, you're seeing the result of caching.  The record will go away
when the TTL expires.

Another possibility is that you didn't reload named after editing the db
file.

If you told us the real domain we could help you better, but with such
limited information we can only guess.  I've never heard of Cobalt raq.
