I need a cup of coffee I’ll feel better

Name that quote. And no fair using the internet.

Very hard getting up this morning, and I’m not sure why. I wasn’t up terribly late, but I really had to get DNS working. Here’s a tip. When you update zone files on the wrong DNS server, they don’t propagate. A few months ago, I started migrating services off of my aging server onto a less-aging server, and forwarding ports at the router. I keep forgetting that I did that, and updating zone files on the old server. Unfortunately, this time around, it took me about 2 hours to figure that out, rather than the regular 10 minutes. I’ve replaced the named.reload script with a shell script that prints “Hey, genius, it’s on the other server now!” That should help.
