    I'm no expert, either. Using dig, nslookup, host, and so on, I did
    find one error. Somewhere you have a record pointing to a
    "somehost.local" as an NS. That won't work ;) Try
    "dig yourdomain.com" and see for yourself...

    Also, your ISP (dslextreme?) seems to be handling your reverse
    DNS, so you don't need to mess with that ... nobody out here will
    ever see it, I don't think.

    Why don't you head over to dnsreport.com and enter your domain
    name there? Neat tool, will tell you more than I can....
