my domain name = namecard2u.com
the name servers already set correctly at the registrar site :
primary ns1.besdns.com 66.246.98.88
second ns3.besdns.com 209.51.149.87
The propagation already completed. The problem is the web page shown now is the one uploaded to the secondary server !!
The SOA settings at the primary name server is :
@ IN SOA ns1.besdns.com. root.server.besdns.com. (
2004032303 ; serial number
28800 ; refresh
7200 ; retry
3600000 ; expire
86400 ) ; min TTL )
namecard2u.com. 14400 IN NS ns1.besdns.com.
namecard2u.com. 14400 IN NS ns3.besdns.com.
namecard2u.com. 14400 IN A 66.246.98.87
and the rest ..
Until today the DNS is still pointing to the secondary, not the primary. I have read a lot online articles about the DNS and name servers but can't find one that really explain on how to set the secondary name server.
There is one article says the secondary DNS is exactly the same as the prime where zone transfer from primary to secondary will take place when the serial number of the primary is updated. What I don't understand is, after 24 hours passed and now the serial number at the secondary server has updated to the same serial number as the primary, but the web page shown is the one on the secondary server !!
Here I copy exactly the SOA from the secondary server :
@ IN SOA ns3.besdns.com. root.chris.gen5dns.net. (
2004032303 ; serial number
14400 ; refresh
7200 ; retry
3600000 ; expire
86400 ) ; min TTL )
namecard2u.com. 14400 IN NS ns1.besdns.com.
namecard2u.com. 14400 IN NS ns3.besdns.com.
namecard2u.com. 14400 IN A 65.254.35.10
and the rest ..
Should the secondary DNS be set exactly follow the primary ?
I totally got no idea ! This is the first time I'm doing it. The purpose is to let my static site be seen and my email can receive and send during the problem in primary server.
Anyone can help or point out the problem ? thanks.
