1) Just be carefull when upgrading make sure the listen-on directive is
stated in the option braces to state the local host 127.0.0.1 and the of the
IP of the InterNIC dns machine only otherwise it will open a file pointer to
every ip bound to the machine, and from experience, that is a pane in the
(pardon the language) ass.

2) the reason everything worked for a day or so is the time to live record
on you dns probably expired after a day.. also i can't seem to get to your
bind server. So unless you found a way to not allow people to nslookup into
your machine, your bind server is not running.. so people are geeting their
info from your secondary (upstream provider)

3) also i did a whois on theonlynet.com, and i see to other nameservers
listed.. are they still operating, and if they are are they pointing things
to the right locations?

i think that 's about all :).
