Can anyone give me some advice on what might the the problem, I am unable to get to my domain my dns is not resolving...this has been the most frustrating ride
1) Post your domain name so we can test it. 2) post the output of the command: dig @localhost yourdomain.com where you replace yourdomain.com with your domain name.
You can use any email client or webmail application e.g. ms outlook, thunderbird, iphone, etc. with your mailserver.

Do I need to submit anything else, I am still unable to get this thing working CheckDNS.NET is asking root servers about authoritative NS for domain Got DNS list for 'gigabitplus.com' from a.gtld-servers.net or a.gtld-servers.net Found NS record: ns1.gigabitplus.com[71.196.23.174], was resolved to IP address by a.gtld-servers.net Found NS record: ns2.gigabitplus.com[71.196.23.174], was resolved to IP address by a.gtld-servers.net Domain has 2 DNS server(s) CheckDNS.NET is verifying if NS are alive Tried to fetch SOA record for domain, but DNS server ns1.gigabitplus.com [71.196.23.174] returned error code Server Failure Tried to fetch SOA record for domain, but DNS server ns2.gigabitplus.com [71.196.23.174] returned error code Server Failure 0 server(s) are alive No DNS servers alive, tests stopped
Take a look at http://www.intodns.com/gigabitplus.com It seems your nameserver isn't responding, so make sure it's running and that port 53 (TCP and UDP!) is open. Then make sure you have a records for ns1 and ns2 in your zone file.
