No, I'm talking about the fact that the animeigo.com query returns a SOA, but the selfpromotion.com query didn't. Curiously, this morning, I get SOAs for both if I directly query my server from home. Yesterday I only got a SOA for animeigo.com. The only difference is that yesterday my ISP's secondary was not reporting authoritative results for my domains (triggering an alert in DNSExpert Trial), they tweaked that (no errors now) and now all seems copacetic. Interesting. Question: does OT round-robin the dns servers listed in the TCP/IP control panel or try them in order of priority. If the former, that is the probable cause of the anomaly since I have several dns servers listed in my "office" configuration (which I used to do the tests) R -- =========================================================== Robert Woodhead, CEO, AnimEigo http://www.animeigo.com/ =========================================================== http://selfpromotion.com/ The Net's only URL registration SHARESERVICE.
