    Hi!

    I have latest ISPconfig stable installed on SuSE 11.0. My host has IP 91.135.26.204, and ISP DNS server 91.135.16.2. However, SOA record generated by very strange way, "SOA 91.135.16.2. root.localhost." contains IP of my ISP's DNS server IP, not IP of my host

    IP address specified in ISPConfig -> ISP Site -> Basis -> IP Address is 91.135.26.204

    Anyone can explain what went wrong?

    Thanks in advance.

    Then you entered the wrong IP address in ISPConfig. Please correct the IP and set it to the IP of your server.

    Hi! Thanks a lot for reply. As for wrongly generated SOA record, where IP of server was substituted with IP of DNS server, please see screenshots attached.

    I have replaced zone file "pri.starlett.lv" with my own, and everything seem to work now. But I suspect that next time I'll change something ISPConfig will overwrite it.

    BTW, how I can change/add some options in Postfix? Will they be overwritten by ISPConfig?

    You must fill in FQDNs for the nameservers, not IP addresses.

    You can directly modify /etc/postfix/main.cf - it will not be overwritten by ISPConfig.
