DNS & SOA problems

    I've had problems for a month now I used to host a site of mine with awardspace a free host and have now moved it to my own reseller hosting package.

    I've changed the DNS and still have problems with the site every now and again in when I try to access FTP it won't let me in. The site for a while used to show the old website, this seems to be a-ok now but the ftp is a problem.

    The site is:
    sanlucardebarramedagolf.com

    The major problem is the SOA will not change from the previous host. It keeps showing awardspace as the SOA. How can I get this to change??

    Thanks Ian

    Looks like errors in your domains zone file, just get your host to clean it up for you shouldn't take them a second. If you have access then you can edit it and remove the old nameservers etc and update with all the new information.

    Is this a problem with my current host or the Awardspace (the previous). Would the DZF file be stored with my current host or need ameding with the old host?

    Thanks Ian

    It's the current host varialhosting.com where the zone files needs checking/correcting.

    Thanks. I've just had a look at my reseller package and it had various dns settings, so I've changed those from awardspace. Will this be the normal up to 72 hours for changes to show.

    Thanks Ian

    It really depends on the settings you have, so it could be minutes or days, I'd need to see the whole file to be able to give you anything specific.
