A-Entry Information Wrong
I am using Cpanel 8 on Redhat 9 and all the A Entry information is incorrect and I do not know where to edit this information and make it accurate...When I try to add the A-Entries for both of my name servers I get the following problems :

Adding an A entry for nameserver ns2.domain.com
Found your nameserver to be: ns2.domain.com
Found your domain name to be: .com
Found your nameserver name to be: ns2.domain
Found your nameserver ip to be: xx.xx.xx.xx

The domain name isnt showing up fully, only the domain extension, and the Nameserver name is also wrong without the full extention. Where do I change the nameserver infromation and domain name for the A-Entry info? I read the Cpanel FAQ and it says "Click on the Add the entry button if the displayed information looks correct." Well what about if it is incorrect? The FAQ doesnt say how to alter it if it is wrong.

I need to rid of these errors and get my name servers resolving correctly. Your prompt assistance with this is appreciated.

I can't look at your domain to figure out what's wrong if I don't know the domain in question. I also would need to know what the IP should be.

Domain : speedyhost.com.au = 69.50.191.82

There are no A records for my nameservers IPs, and due to the incorrect information supplied by Cpanel I am unable to add them. I know the problem, I just dont know how to fix it...

Did you fix it or something?

speedyhost.com.au Zone Transfer

All the A records point to the IP you showed me above (except ns2 which is appropriate). Your name server domains also have IP addresses.

Yeah, the resolv file was messed up! CPanel is buggy, thanks for your time anyhow regarding this matter... It appears to be fine now, although I did never add the A entry correctly in the Edit Setup section but its there... Ive been told its just CPanel being whack
