Other servers (such as ns1.earthlink.net, ns2, ns3, but not ns4.earthlink.net) show the same 247 address. (our DNS server is ns.mpionline.com or ns.movierate.com) It has been like this a LONG time, making movierate.com basically unreachable to half the world, and I have tried everything from changing serial numbers of domain info to cname aliasing, and even changing registrars. PLEASE HELP, I'm at a complete loss with this one. Why is it pointing to the wrong place? How can I force a name server to update itself from the authoritative answer?
