Force DNS propagation

    From the ISPConfig panel, how can I force a push of DNS entries that I have to propagate?

    I'm running Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS / ISPConfig 3.2.1 - setup using the perfect server guide

    I found that my network cable had become disconnected, and my server was no longer on the network. I was able to reset the connection, and then power cycled my server. Looking through syslog, it appears to have happened on 12/24, following a cron task at 9:30:01 local time.

    Now, when I go out to https://www.whatsmydns.net/, all 4 of the domains I have aren't showing up in the world. At my place of employment (also my ISP, I can get into the server using the name and IP).

    When I run "sudo php -q htf-common-issues.php", I get the following:



    ##### SERVER #####

    Currently, I do know that from my work at least, I can get to the server, ISPConfig admin, phpMyAdmin, several hosted domains and my email addresses that I have setup for the domains. I've also tested incoming and outgoing emails. Ping doesn't work, but I believe I have it blocked at the router.

    Tools > Resync > DNS records will rewrite your zone files with a new serial number. From there things will update, and you might have old info still in caches until it expires.

    If your issue was actually a temporary internet outage so that your server was unreachable from the internet, I would expect that to resolve itself fairly quickly once your server was back up, without needing to do anything.
