I've tried everything with this one. Here's the error on restart from Cpanel for BIND:

I don't know what to do. I chowned /etc/rndc.key to named:root, and that worked for a few, and then it went back to doing this.
I see some errors about lame servers in messages log,and i noticed that look like adress of isp surfer domain beacuse i noticed domain of my isp listed also as lame name server.Here is example:

When I create a folder called "error" in a sub domain, apache doesn't read it. I tried with different permissions and proprietary (root and sub domain owner) but doesn't read the index.html.
In other sub domain the same problem occurs.

Apache reserves the name "error" for internal use?
way to get a complete DNS Fail-Over solution for my website.
Currently I'm hosted at one Hosting Facility in NY, and I'm thinking on getting a backup location either in TX or CA but my biggest problem is visitors as even If I will get the secondary location and set the TTL to 10-20min some ISPs are caching the ip address for 24hrs, so even If I will change the IPs from the old range to the new, some ISP's around the world will still cache the old IP and the visitors will get nowhere in case the main location has an issue.
And I was wondering if there’s a way to send people to one direct IP let’s say 1.2.3.4 and from there to load the pages / db or mask there connection under the domain name to a different location without them noticing it so the SSL certificate wont produce error messages.
As I'm sure that Yahoo, CNN and other major websites don’t use one web server for accept connections all over the world to their websites.
what happens when I have 2 DNS servers on my domain and 1 fails? around 50% of the access fails... or they detect DNS timeout and try the other one, so 50% of the access would just take more time?
in a broken state halfway upgraded from centos 4 to centos 5. You'll need to either complete the update to centos 5 or revert to centos 4. Easyapache and some other cPanel functions require that yum be working, but "yum update" on your server currently fails due to the mix of centos 4 and 5 rpm's you have installed
So speakeasy decided to jump on the dedicated server business, and I tried them. My recommendation: Do not sign up for a dedicated server with them - that is unless you want to wait more than a month on your server (took them 35 days) in which they will lie to you and make up excuses for why they take so long. Then once they set up your server, expect it to get piss poor bandwidth and not function properly. The customer service takes 72+ hours to respond 10% of the time. The other 90% they don't respond at all. My sales rep apologized more than 15 times to me in the 35 day period I waited on my server claiming they are "new to the managed services business." This was more than obvious - I basically handed them $600 and got a worthless piece of junk which sat idle for 30 days in return.
I am only writing this post here because I used webhosting talk to research my recent purchase of a dedicated server with liquidweb.
I have been a happy liquidweb VPS customer for the last year and have grown my business with them. Last week I decided to upgrade from a VPS to a dedicated server and that is where things went wrong.
Stefan in sales was nice in taking my order and had my new server setup in very little time. I got an email that everything had been migrated and they would do the cut over Friday morning.
Friday morning I awoke to phone calls from my clients saying they were not getting emails, their site was down, etc.
I do some initial research and find out that liquidweb sold me a new dedicated server with old used dirty ip addressees that were blocked by ATT / sbcglobal / pacbell. To compound this problem a week later and three ip changes all of which were blocked I am still being blocked and on their blacklist. See below for list of other problems.
I was transferred to Bret my account manager who has done nothing for me and hung up on me through web today while pleading with him to get someone to help me.
I can only talk to a support supervisor and no one will let me talk to a real manager. I went on vacation to Boston this week and have been dealing with these issues the entire time.
I feel like I have been pawned off and shuffled around from person to person and can not get my issues resolved.
And to throw salt on the wound they billed $209 for a $159 server and then charged me a seperate $10 for 2 days from last month. Stefan assured me this transfer would be done at the end of the month so there would be no additional charges. Another lie.
Below is the short list of all the issues I have had with liquid web over that last since my migration.
Mysql databases were copied over
Email forwarders were not copied over
Email was being blocked by ATT/SBC/Pacbell
SPF records were not copied over
A records were not copied over
They sold me a new server with old drity blacklisted ip addresses.
After three sets of ip addresses I am still being blocked.
I was billed for both my old VPS and my new server when stefan the sales agent told me it would be a seamless migration and I would be billed for the server starting next month.
Can never talk to the same person twice. Have talked to about 20 people total over the talk week no one will take responsibility to get my issues resolved.
Can anyone recommend a fully managed dedicated server that will handle my migration with care and take responsibility when issues arise.
we are currently planning to implement SAN to our enviroment - VPS hosting.
Al VPS should be placed on the SAN - iSCSI connected to be able live motion etc.
Currently we are fighting with idea of Failover/High avalability. There has been rumors that dual controller SAN from HP/DELL are much more problematic than single controller versions.
We are also thinking about running some opensource like OpenFiler/FreeNAS/OpenSolaris or NexentaStore on supermicro boxes with SATA or single RAID controller.
But in that case - how make the iSCSI target highly available? Mirroring of the data/space is pretty easy with DRBD or ZFS but when one SAN box goes down, there should be no interruption in iSCSI targe service - no IP change etc..
I know I have seen a command line you can use which will activate :fail: in all the accounts on the server simultaneously so that you don't have to do each account separately, but I can't find that command.
Does anyone here know what that command is? I'm assuming it would involve /etc/valiases/?

When I run /etc/init.d/proftpd start, I get the following:

I have this server with no control panel and dnsreport could not connect to mailservers on all my domains. But the server can send out emails because I'm receiving logwatch emails, etc. I'm also using dnsmadeeasy for my nameservers.

ERROR: I could not complete a connection to any of your mailservers!
mail.mydomain.com: Timed out [Last data sent: [Did not connect]]
If this is a timeout problem, note that the DNS report only waits about 40 seconds for responses, so your mail *may* work fine in this case but you will need to use testing tools specifically designed for such situations to be certain.
I tried adding the domains on /etc/mail/local-host-names and restart sendmail but the error is still there.

Got the domain sitting at godaddy with ns1 and ns2 pointing to 216.201.80.101/102
Everything looks good as far as I can see, local nslookup on the loopback is fine, and iptables are good.
Now we host about 100,000 domains and they are all using the same DNS servers (cPanel cluster system)
So now I checked our /etc/named.conf files.. and these are HUUUGE.. If you try to start/restart named service it takes 5 minutes to load all zones. It is also taking about 30% CPU and 35% of ram when running even on dual core server..
Any ideas how could we optimise named configuration ? Maybe it is something like mod_vhost_alias for Apache just for bind service?
