One possible solution I've just thought of may be to actually just move the .net.nz to another registrar, I dislike regsiter.com becuase of their prices, but I think they do support .co.nz and .net.nz domains. Not sure if this will fix it or not, but I'm willing to give it a shot.

I have just registed a .com domain and will use that but it will still be a pain if the IP addresses change as it will have to be done in all of the .nz domain via domainz

Well After a couple of weeks Domainz still hasn't gotten back to me about my wee DNS issue so I've moved it to freeparking.co.nz where at least I can specify my Nameservers without them being overwritten by someone elses.

Is anyone here actually using .nz domains as the main service DNS zone ? I'm not certain but I think this is causing some of my customers problems with DNS Timeout type issues as people are reporting frequently getting Can't find site type errors on a few of the accounts hosted with me (though most say its only started happening in the last 2 weeks - hmm since about the H-Sphere upgrade time actually but you know what customers are like it could have been happening all along they only just decided to mention it to me).

A DNS Report on kiwihosting.net.nz is showing a few warning messages not sure if any of them could be causing my customers problems though.

Is there any way I can change my main DNS Zone without screwing all my customers up ? ie from a .net.nz to a .com ? at least that would fix the glue warning error on DNSReport and hopefully also stop the 'DNS Not Found' errors some customers are getting.

Just re-reading this thread again too I noticed this comment

Brangwyn's "65.57.227.81 I get a blank" is because he's using a shared ip for his site, and so the ip only resolves to the hsphere system.

Actually thats a Dedicated IP, but it still doesn't seem to resolve.

No if you delete your DNS name or change it you must delete all acounts as it does not go back and edit your other domains DNS.

I kind of figured that was likely to be the case

Any suggestions that might help me out though ?

I've registered a .net domain and have registered the nameservers with the registrar, I'm hoping somehow I can use this for my US customers instead.

Is there anything I'm missing ? I'm still not entirely sure that I understand why some people are getting this DNS Issue.
