Using another web host's DNS

Question "godaddy.com hosting.", by William M.

Hi,

I'm trying to update my dns records with godaddy.com's

ns51.domaincontrol.com 216.69.185.26

ns52.domaincontrol.com 208.109.255.26

However, there is a zonecheck error…

[TEST l'enregistrement MX n'est pas un alias]: échec du serveur (IN/CNAME: smtp.secureserver.net.)

http://www.afnic.fr/outils/zonecheck/zc.cgi?afnic&intro=t&explain=t&details=t&progress=counter&zone=mcnamara.fr&ns0=ns51.domaincontrol.com&ns1=ns52.domaincontrol.com

What is this?

Thanks,

Bill

This means that GoDaddy's servers have failed the French registry's zonecheck: http://wiki.gandi.net/en/glossary#z

Here is the English version of that page: http://www.afnic.fr/outils/zonecheck/zc.cgi?zone=mcnamara.fr&ns0=ns51.domaincontrol.com&ips0=216.69.185.26&ns1=ns52.domaincontrol.com&ips1=208.109.255.26&ns2=&ips2=&ns3=&ips3=&ns4=&ips4=&ns5=&ips5=&ns6=&ips6=&ns7=&ips7=&intro=t&explain=t&details=t&progress=counter&report=byseverity&format=html&lang=en&errorlvl=&profile=afnic&chkmail=t&chkzone=t&chkrir=t&transp3=ipv4&transp3=ipv6&transp4=std

As you can see, GoDaddy's servers have refused answers from the French registry, and thus, are unusable on a .fr domain at this time. You will need to contact GoDaddy and ask them to fix this issue.
