My bad.. Apparently on some of the domains, in the Domain Information Field in QDNS, the old info for the name server was still there. I have changed this to reflect the changes made originally. I have been doing digs one by one and everything appears to be working properly now. I will run DNS expert on each domain later today to insure that everything has fully propagated. So few times do people, especially those in charge of things, admit their mistakes. This is a gross oversight on my part and a big mistake. We recently moved our ISP/NOC into our new building and moving seems to have occupied my brain with much stress. It is absolute hell to move an ISP and I will never do that again. As to my brain fart, I am reminded of Kevin Arnold's math teacher from the Wonder Years, who said "the solution to the problem is in the problem." Thanx for all the help.
