When or how frequently should, or does, the DNS proxy update it's stored data?
The Problem:
A company we correspond with moved their website to a new host and their mail server in house. Within one hour DNSStuff was reporting the changed info in the DNS zone file when queried.
28 hours later, e-mails sent to this company from multiple different mail servers, each behind a different Astaro (configured to provide DNS), were bouncing. Meanwhile, multiple e-mails sent to the company from multiple other outside locations, arrived without incident. The errors indicated that the e-mails that bounced did so due to their being sent to the company's old (previous) IP address.
We then ran DNS lookups on several of the Astaros. They each reported the old DNS info - and not the new. After restarting each Astaro, they subsequently reported the correct (new) DNS info. Note that we hadn't made any other changes.
Question:
So the obvious question: Is the DNS info in the proxy only updated when it's manually flushed, etc.? What's it take to get it to update automatically (assuming it should)?
