Looking through my documentation it seems like >it should work fine. Is my thinking completely messed up? No, it won't work. Yes, your thinking is messed up: $ dig @a.gtld-servers.net. ns1.totallogic.com a ; <<>> DiG 9.4.3-P2 <<>> @a.gtld-servers.net. ns1.totallogic.com a ; (2 servers found) ;; global options: printcmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 60637 ;; flags: qr rd; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 2, ADDITIONAL: 2 ;; WARNING: recursion requested but not available ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;ns1.totallogic.com. IN A ;; ANSWER SECTION: ns1.totallogic.com. 172800 IN A 65.124.104.25 ;; AUTHORITY SECTION: totallogic.com. 172800 IN NS ns1.totallogic.com. totallogic.com. 172800 IN NS ns2.totallogic.com. ;; ADDITIONAL SECTION: ns1.totallogic.com. 172800 IN A 65.124.104.25 ns2.totallogic.com. 172800 IN A 65.123.104.25 The A records for your two name servers are also in the .COM zone. If they weren't there'd be no way to find totallogic.com in the first place. You'll need to log into your registrar and update their addresses there as well as updating the local A records. Since the TTL is two days, don't turn off those old servers any time soon. R's, John R's, John
