Quoting Michael Paoli (Michael.Paoli@cal.berkeley.edu):
Ah, good ... glad you caught that bit. :-)
Yeah, I kinda owe you an apology for the pessimistic assumption that you moved a master nameserver to a new IP and didn't tell me. It's happened to me multiple times with other people I do secondary for, though, so the cynicism has a foundation. Anyway, excuses aside: Sorry about that!
I have to remember that my /etc/bind/named.conf.local's comment lines are a _really_ critical place to not _anything_ about the status of domains, e.g., everything I ought to know that's surprising, plus contact information fo everyone relevant.
Yeah, I can understand heck of a lot going on. (Mom, stroke, whole bunch 'o stuff precipitated out from that ... still recovering from my 2 week anti-vacation + similar rather recently before that ... still playing catch-up and handling of miscellaneous gunk ... e.g. have a car to sell off too - and in the meantime nothin' but street parking for it - which is yet another annoying inconvenience and thing to do and keep an eye on).
Personally, I've found that chopping some wood with a two-bladed Viking-style axe helps. It doesn't solve a thing, but you feel better. ;->
