How soon will changes for nameservers take affect?

[Roger Nordseth]

I discovered that my domains as i own was on internal IP so a ping on my namesevers came up with internal ip.
The domains i host is on external IP .

I have set SOA to update sooner then hours but no change yet

I had this issue and i had to use a sql query to change all the soa records, then a shell script to rebuild named , and then restart.

This will change the ttl to 5 minutes(300 seconds)

mysql -uadmin -p`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` psa

> UPDATE `dns_zone` SET `ttl` = '300', `ttl_unit` = '60' WHERE `id` >1;quit;

With this script you rebuild the bind config files: mysql -Ns -uadmin -p`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` -D psa -e 'select name from dns_zone' | awk '{print "/usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/dnsmng update " $1 }' | sh
