I host a BIND9 DNS server for my VirtualMin users to use. And It only resolves for 75% of the people. It has been WELL over 1 week now.

Here is a sample.

$ttl 38400 @ IN SOA axxim.net. root.axxim.net. ( 1274031391 10800 3600 604800 38400 ) @ IN NS axxim.net. day7tech.com. IN A 96.226.216.37 www.day7tech.com. IN A 96.226.216.37 ftp.day7tech.com. IN A 96.226.216.37 m.day7tech.com. IN A 96.226.216.37 localhost.day7tech.com. IN A 127.0.0.1 webmail.day7tech.com. IN A 96.226.216.37 admin.day7tech.com. IN A 96.226.216.37 mail.day7tech.com.
