I got curious...
I went to GoDaddy and created NS1.MYDOMAIN.COM and NS2.MYOMAIN.COM that both point to the IP address of my digital ocean server.
So once those propagate NS1 and NS2 should point to my servers IP address?
Once I can ping those I will setup Bind on the digital ocean server and mess with it. Sounds to me that it should work.
If I can get this set up this way I will drop my "old host" because I will save $20/month.
As I said before my server is just a hobby, I do have mail for a friends domain hosted on other server but the http goes to his other site (via DNS, his domain points to my server), I'm pretty much just the mail server for him. I do need more than local DNS because of that.
Guess I'm setting this up as a webhost instead of a test machine

Someone named Glenn sent me a private message re: Arvixe. I erroneously deleted that message and can't get to it again thru CP. So Glenn, could you pl. email me directly at my email address shown in my sig? Thanks!
[Edit] Argh. My sig has disappeared. Just send me another msg thru CP. Thanks.

That was terrible. But it made me chuckle. +5

You trying to find Glenfiddich aren't you, or maybe the Glen Scotia, Glencadam, Glendronach, Glengoyne, Glenkinchie, Glen Garioch or maybe the Glenmorangie?
It is probably in the same isle as the Gin.

Did you check the trash folder?

When I delete, I delete. And I don't mean just emptying the trash, I mean compacting the trash folder (which sends a message to my personal IMAP server instructing it to delete messages marked deleted). I carry a large hammer.

Ravi deletes the message, and the child messages, the parent message, the related messages, and any message that has done business with the message.
Ravi's last name is really Söze.

I can neither confirm nor deny that accusation.

Are you using Mozilla Thunderbird?

Yes, and also Squirrel Mail (web interface).

Yeah, I remember. I used one of their add-ons X-Punge to do all that. 99% of the time, it was fine. Just that 1% when everything was obliterated that you go, damn!

Ravi,
I looked back at my tickets from Arvixe and it seems like the address for support is; ga@arvixe.com you might shoot them an email and attn: Glenn.

Thanks Mike, but this Glenn is a CPian, not an Arvixe employee.
