DNS entries required for a domain

My OS is CentOS 6.7 with Plesk 12.5.x

There are always some errors when I am checking DNS records in any DNS diagnostic tool. Can anybody please advise what records are necessary to set for all domains?

Here is my Plesk=>Tools & Settings => DNS Template

Solution

  • So the first major problem I see with your domain is that two of the nameservers listed do not reply.

    ns1.onlinenics.net. ns1.wellnessbd.com. Maybe they are firewalled ?

    And looking at the whois record it shows these as the registered nameservers;

    NSSEC.ONLINE.NET NS1.ONLINENICS.NET

    I'd check that first - it may just be a config error, or there may be a firewall/IPtables in the way blocking the query.

    to fix the spf record you need something like this in your zone with the addresses of your valid sender(s); "v=spf1 mx ip4:<ips of valid senders>/<cidr> -all"

    If you have a way to export your zone file that would be a help and much easier to read and provide corrections too, sadly I'm no use with control panel type affairs.

    I found a better online web tool which tests your dns. Specific results for your domain are here
