Newbie Primary server question

[modauth]

It's working for me too. Maybe a problem in your resolv.conf file (
depending on OS )   < nslookup output below )



[root at ns1 /root]# nslookup
Default Server:  ns1.zombie-jesus
Address:  209.61.182.164

> ambient-software.com
Server:  ns1.zombie-jesus.com
Address:  209.61.182.164

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:    ambient-software.com
Address:  209.98.145.120

> www.ambient-software.com
Server:  ns1.zombie-jesus.com
Address:  209.61.182.164

ambient-software.com
        origin = ns1.flom2.com
        mail addr = root.localhos
        serial = 2000112201
        refresh = 10800 (3H)
        retry   = 3600 (1H)
        expire  = 604800 (1W)
        minimum ttl = 86400 (1D)
