@TerryMcKenna: "Hi guys,
I have a friend that has a web site being developed by a web hosting
company and they are telling him that because they are hosting his web
site they also have to manage his DNS records.
His domain is registered with NetSol so he is using their DNS servers.
He has the <url> enrty pointing to the IP that the web hosting
company gave him for his web server.
It resolves to the home page, and other links on the site, but
sometimes the links will go back to NetSol as that is the default
failover.
Is the web hosting company correct in saying that they must manage his
DNS as well?
Thanks,"

They don't have to "manage" his domain, but the DNS pointer for the 
Domain Name needs to be set to point to the web host's servers. There 
will be a primary and a secondary server name to change.

    @TerryMcKenna: "<quote>
Dave,
I understand the primary but where should the secondary be set?
Current Config:
<url> >> 66.x.x.x
@ >> 66.x.x.x
* >> ??? (what should this be set to?)
And forwarding eMail to his exchange server that he manages himself,
should the MX record just be mail.domainName.com or does
smtp.domainName.com also need to point to his exchange server? His
exchange server is not a TLD (.com,.net,.org). He's named it %hostName
%.local. He's not hosting a website so he doesn't need to name it a
TLD, correct?
Thanks again."
