WARNING: Your nameservers do not include any corresponding A records when asked for your NS records. They probably are not returning the A records when asked, which can prevent some other DNS servers from contacting your DNS servers. They should do this if they are authoritative for those A records. The problem record(s) are:
Nameserver my.server.ip.address did not provide any IPs
Nameserver my.server.ip.address did not provide any IPs
Now, I have a dedicated server, so i'm pretty much on my own with figuring out this stuff. And I don't really know what to search for regarding this topic.
Can someone lend me a pointer.
