Hi,

I have setup vanity nameservers using my DO control panel but intoDNS tool is reporting recursive queries and my domain is not fully resolved yet ...

Here is my zone configuration file:

$ORIGIN mywebsite.com.
$TTL 1800
mywebsite.com. IN SOA ns1.digitalocean.com. hostmaster.mywebsite.com.

mywebsite.com. 1800 IN A (droplet ip address)
ns1.mywebsite.com. 1800 IN A 173.245.58.51
ns2.mywebsite.com. 1800 IN A 173.245.59.41
ns3.mywebsite.com. 1800 IN A 198.41.222.173
mywebsite.com. 1800 IN NS ns1.mywebsite.com.
mywebsite.com. 1800 IN NS ns2.mywebsite.com.
mywebsite.com. 1800 IN NS ns3.mywebsite.com.

Can someone please tell me what is missing?

Many thanks

Hey there,

I don't see an issue with the DNS zone itself, but running your own name servers (vanity name servers) also includes registering the name servers (glue records). Each registrar has a unique method for this setting. Usually it's buried and not easy to find.

You can also open a support ticket and we can certainly help you a long further and work with you to test and confirm your settings.

Happy coding,
