Hello, I've recently setup a vps with cPanel DNS only - to provide more redundancy to my hosting/dns network. (secondary dns solution) I've set it up so my hosting server synchronises changes on the vps as well. Since I can't actually get it to list the dns records on the vps via whm, how I can check that the records are on the vps and can be queried correctly. When I tell it to manually synchronise the records from my hosting server, it reloads bind on both servers with no errors. Many thanks in advance, Matt

you could probably try the command dig domain.com @localhost to confirm whether dns is added correctly to the secondary
