That problem was fixed by bouncing the in.named daemon on ns2. And now ns1 putting out wrong IP for a host name; what's going on? This time I'll try to include some useful info:<br>

<div>Just an FYI from a Sun admin - Solaris 8 (aka SunOS 5.8) isn't getting new patches from Oracle/Sun - and hasn't been since I think April 2008 or 2009. At some point you'll want to upgrade to Solaris 10 (or some other OS). I doubt that's your problem though.</div>

<br>1- Can you guys recommend a good DNS Admin book/website/paper, so I can start educating myself and hopefully soon I won't have to trouble you good guys/gals. And maybe even be able to contribute to the list.<br><br>
2- How do I go about changing this IP on ns1? Will it automatically propagate to ns2 or do I have to do it on ns2 as well?<br><br>Again, many thanks in advance for your time and assistance. You guys/gals and this list really works. Can't wait to be able to contribute to it soon; maybe I could do dns 101 type questions :-)</font></font></div>
