Make sure the entry of that particular domain is not in /etc/named.conf file. If its there remove it and restart bind.

Also delete the zone file for the domain at /var/named/domainname.db, if exist.

If you have a Reseller account then you will have to ask your host to look into it.

You can perform the above steps only if you are a root user and not a reseller. You will have to make those changes by logging to the server as root.

Thanks for the reply shaker....
i shall ask my host to do it..
but that option was cumbersome.. it just put me in a state that i cant do anything..

anyways thanks again.
