  ftp.superserver.co.uk. CNAME superserver.co.uk.
  mail.superserver.co.uk. A 217.146.91.225
  ns.superserver.co.uk. A 217.146.91.225
  ns1.superserver.co.uk. A 217.146.91.225
  ns1.superserver.co.uk. NS ns1.superserver.co.uk.
  ns2.superserver.co.uk. A 217.146.91.230
  ns2.superserver.co.uk. NS ns2.superserver.co.uk.

  webmail.superserver.co.uk. A 217.146.91.225
  www.superserver.co.uk. CNAME superserver.co.uk.

is our DNS settings. are they correct?

According to http://www.dnsreport.com:

WARNING: At least one of your nameservers did not return your NS records (it reported 0 answers). This could be because of a referral, if you have a lame nameserver (which would need to be fixed).

217.146.91.230 returns 0 answers (may be a referral


any help is appreciated

First, clean up your DNS entries.

Remove the following:

ns1.superserver.co.uk. NS ns1.superserver.co.uk.
ns2.superserver.co.uk. NS ns2.superserver.co.uk.

Since they are incorrect.

Restart bind and retest locally. You may need to wait for the DNS to repropagate for the links from dnsstuff to work.

Also, make sure your firewall has the DNS ports open.
