Hi folks

With help from this list I recently updated my DNS configuration to provide
for a primary and secondary DNS server where the primary DNS server is my
host inside my domain and the secondary server is provided by AT&T

I discovered that the secondary server on file with my registrar  was wrong
so I got the right data  and they claim to have created a glue record but
I'm still getting that host is not responding

*primary dns ws.linuxlighthouse.com <http://ws.linuxlighthouse.com>*
*Secondary server ns2.swbell.net <http://ns2.swbell.net>*

would some kind soul direct me to a coherent glue (or duct tape) record
test?

also, given some domain name how do you know which top level domain name
servers should be the first set that you query to locate your domain in
question??

pick a random root-server:  ( [a..m] means a through m )

dig @[a..m].root-servers.net. linuxlighthouse.com.

will give you the servers for com.

which are [a..m].gtld-servers.net.

dig @[a..m].gtld-servers.net. linuxlighthouse.com.

;linuxlighthouse.com.           IN      A

;; AUTHORITY SECTION:
linuxlighthouse.com.    172800  IN      NS      ns2.swbell.net.
linuxlighthouse.com.    172800  IN      NS      ws.linuxlighthouse.com.

;; ADDITIONAL SECTION:
ws.linuxlighthouse.com. 172800  IN      A       108.220.213.121

The A record points to your primary.

If you need to find out about your IP address you use the ARPA servers

dig @[a..f].in-addr-servers.arpa. 121.213.220.108.in-addr.arpa.

will give you the servers for 108.in-addr.arpa.

dig @[ruxyz].arin.net. 121.213.220.108.in-addr.arpa.

gives you bell nameservers. Now that you are there you must search for your PTR record.

;121.213.220.108.in-addr.arpa.  IN      PTR

;; ANSWER SECTION:
121.213.220.108.in-addr.arpa. 7200 IN   PTR     ws.linuxlighthouse.com.

;; AUTHORITY SECTION:
213.220.108.in-addr.arpa. 7200  IN      NS      ns2.swbell.net.
213.220.108.in-addr.arpa. 7200  IN      NS      ns3.sbcglobal.net.
213.220.108.in-addr.arpa. 7200  IN      NS      ns1.swbell.net.
