URGENT help needed! Nameserver problem.

[Static]

Recently, I bought a new reseller account to get away from Dreamhost (nothing too bad, just I prefer cPanel).

So I signed up with a new host. I decided to use blindweaver.com as my primary domain. They gave me the IPs to register a nameserver. So I did.

ns1.blindweaver.com - xx.xx.xxx.51
ns2.blindweaver.com - xx.xx.xxx.52

I accesssed my WHM through xx.xx.xxx.50/whm.

Then, because I wanted to setup a blog on BlindWeaver.com, I pointed the blindweaver.com nameservers to ns1.blindweaver.com and ns2.blindweaver.com

Propagated, everything works great!

Now, I was going to transfer another site over. goldarcade.net

I pointed goldarcade.net's nameservers to:
ns1.blindweaver.com ns2.blindweaver.com

Deleted:
ns1.dreamhost.com ns2.dreamhost.com ns3.dreamhost.com

But the site still has not yet propagated! 2 days and still it shows the cache!

I had enough, so I went and checked:
http://www.dnsreport.com/tools/dnsreport.ch?domain=goldarcade.net

At there, it says I have to fails.

ERROR: You have one or more lame nameservers. These are nameservers that do NOT answer authoritatively for your domain. This is bad; for example, these nameservers may never get updated. The following nameservers are lame:
72.36.147.51
72.36.147.52

ERROR: One or more of the nameservers listed at the parent servers are not listed as NS records at your nameservers. The problem NS records are:
ns1.blindweaver.com.
ns2.blindweaver.com.

What do these errors specifically mean? I know that this is what is causing the problem. (At least I think)

Rep will be added of course, for help.

I've been loosing quite a bit of visitors and $$ due to this downtime of 2 days and nearing 3, so much help will be appreciated!

Thank you.

looks like you have not setup correctly the nameservers.

ask for support at your host to assist you.
the A records are set wrong, and it looks like you have not set reverse DNS correctly (which will make email to and from your server a big pain)

also, are you sure you registerd the 2 IPs as nameservers and not simplyu set DNS.
Many people confuse the 2, and set their domain to point ti ns1.example.com and ns2.example.com (example.com used as an example).
this is incorrect.
DNS setup and nameserver setup are 2 different things (it looks like you already know that, but just in case).

The best course of action INMO is to contact support from your host so they can clarify.

P.S.
In some worst case scenarios, I have seen sites take 48+ hours to propogate.

seeker, what exactly is an A record? What should I exactly ask my host? Did they give me the incorrect IPs or something?

I used the two IPs given and the "Register a Name Server" function in DomainSite.

ok, they need to setrup the nameserver now from WHM.
its better that they do it and also include reverse DNS.

To me, it looks like they have not included the internal setup on the server to recognize the nameserver. so although you login from /WHM (.50 right?) .51 and .52 are not setup correctly.
you need to inform the host that you have done your part, and if they can do their part from the server's end.

Your host needs to set those nameservers in the Reseller Panel for your domain... so that all new accounts are set to them.

Fixed. Thanks!
