Hi there,

I'm unable to pass the Glue check, but I've checked out my DNS records and it does seem to have glue records for my assigned domain controller. The only thing that I would think might be screwing up the test would be that my nameservers reside on a different domain than the one its serving, so that you'd get:

dig mydomain.org NS
mydomain.org.      2518      IN NS        ns88.otherdomain.com.
ns88.otherdomain.com. 83652  IN    AAAA     2001:db8::b00b:cafe

Please provide specific details, obfuscating domain names doesn't help us help you, thanks.

ok  ;D the specific domain is dsc-dsi.org

if I do a dig dsc-dsi.org NS I get:

linux-dm0a:~ # dig dsc-dsi.org NS

; <<>> DiG 9.7.6-P1 <<>> dsc-dsi.org NS

Quotemy nameservers reside on a different domain
That's why you don't have glue records.

Thanks! I finally switched my DNS to my own servers (had been planning on doing that for some time) and sure enough, I had already set up glue records for 'em, so the test passed. Yahoo!  :)
