DNS question - never mind, found the issue

Looks like you need to talk to your registrar:

A "whois" lookup says

Updated Date: 2014-08-12 03:21:19

Name Server: NS1.STARKRAVENMUSIC.COM

Name Server: NS2.STARKRAVENMUSIC.COM

That's 17 days ago.

However a DNS lookup for NS records returns an error.

This makes me think your registration entry doesn't have the proper glue records.

The question you ask isn't one we can answer; it's going to depend on your setup. What DNS server have you configured to be authorative for the domain? If you programmed them into the linode DNS service then, yes, ns1.linode.com etc etc are the right values. However, ns1.linode.com doesn't know about this domain.

Looking at your dm-gremlim.com config and using those DNS settings then I get the right result. So maybe you just need to update your registrar settings and supply IP addresses for ns1 and ns2; this will create the glue records.

@wynnesome1:

Sorry all - don't see a way to delete thread - had a domain that was disabled due to a failed ICANN verification, and got it resolved.

I'm not sure why folks do this, but it's pretty detrimental to collective learning. When you delete your question, it removes any ability for people who have the same question in the future to benefit from this discourse.
