How long does it take for the zone file to update? I’ve changed my MX records 2 hours ago and still nothing.

×Are you guys still having trouble? I added a new domain via the Control Panel over 7 hours ago, and I still can’t get an answer from ns1.digitalocean.com when I run dig. I’m wondering if something is broken.
Same to me. If I do a whois I see the digitalocean name servers:
Name Server: NS1.DIGITALOCEAN.COM
Name Server: NS2.DIGITALOCEAN.COM
Name Server: NS3.DIGITALOCEAN.COM
However, I get a SERVFAIL when doing a dig:
; <<>> DiG 9.9.5-3-Ubuntu <<>> esplailagrapadora.com
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: SERVFAIL, id: 17518

;; OPT PSEUDOSECTION:

;; QUESTION SECTION:
;esplailagrapadora.com. IN A
And a refused:
root@juanramon-01:~# dig -t NS esplailagrapadora.com @ns1.digitalocean.com
; <<>> DiG 9.9.5-3-Ubuntu <<>> -t NS esplailagrapadora.com @ns1.digitalocean.com

My change finally went through about 10 hours later. I now get an answer for my domain with dig @ns1.digitalocean.com. It looks like yours is working now too, juanramon.
