Best move ever. If you're serious about your website, you'll host it on Linux. If NS was on a Windows server, it would crash at least 45 times an hour.

We're hosted on a dedicated linux box. Rackshack.net.

Microsoft servers have TERRIBLE security, and they just can't handle large loads.

It can be pretty challenging to get your head around DNS servers..

What is the problem you're having? What happens when you go to your domain?
