Hi guys,

So running one of our domains through the intoDNS system, we get multiple errors. intoDNS: netshapers.com - check DNS server and mail server health

Any reason why these errors are occurring? If you do a `host` on one of our domains, everything seems to come back fine. The ns10/ns20 are set up as our main Nameservers in cPanel and for each account we make inside of it.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

So you made nameservers at your DNS it looks like. Take a look at this tool Network tools for every sys admin - DnsQueries this provides a little more info. But did you make the Name Server record the DNS level.

Example: I have a name server at where i bought my domain ( godaddy). I also have a NS record in my DNS records. I aslo have an A record on my DNS records as well .
Godaddy:
Made a Namer server.
The NS record:On server in cpanel
qualityhostinginc.com 86400 IN NS ns1.qualityhostinginc.com.
The A record: On server in cpanel
ns1 14400 IN A xx.xx.xx.xx( IP for Name Server)

Hope this helps.

Yes, this is how we have it set up. We can't set A records on GoDaddy because then it would require us use their DNS servers, and not our own.

I tried quering your DNS records at the site I listed before. Network tools for every sys admin - DnsQueries

I got nothing for your records. Make sure have Name Servers set up on in Godaddy.

Registering Your Own Nameservers/Hosts | Go Daddy Help | Go Daddy Support
I just got off the phone with GoDaddy, everything seems ok on their end. Here is a screenshot from our GoDaddy hub: http://i.imgur.com/ax8zX.png

Issue is still not resolved. Any one from cPanel have any ideas? Do we need to make a ticket?

Another idea.

Your records all look good to me as far as I can tell.

Go To
WHM > Networking Setup > Nameserver IPs

Does this display the correct IP for the respective Name Server?

I don't see a problem anywhere along the line. You have appropriate glue records. You have a valid DNS zone on both ns10/ns20 which yields valid NS records for netshapers.com and valid A records for ns10/ns20.netshapers.com. This is based upon manual DNS queries using dig as well as via My DNS Check: a DNS diagnostics tool.

I think intoDNS has the problem. Maybe a query via intoDNS is pulling up cached data from their system.
