Dear namecheap, I honestly love your service and prices but how in the hell can I see an ip address in the dig of a new domain (url shortener) which I never put or saw there and which doesn't even belong to any server I own/operate?!

DNS cache after the last chance of three days ago, nah, don't think so.

Fucking hell.

    @Condor Yeah that's great indeed but I literally already removed it which appearantly didn't actually happen which just caused me quite some debugging headache :/

    @Condor Gotta say, their support staff is nice and fast!

    @Condor It officially may take up to 48-72 hours but it usually takes a maximum of 4 hours. It's been well past 72 hours so I got rather annoyed :

    And believe me, working at a hosting and registrar company myself, I explain this daily ;)

    Why the fuck is this an issue? They do that to actually save themself, from forward DNS servers like google retrying until hell if they get an empty zone.

    it could be that the cache servers assume that the official nameserver for your domain is corrupt. i would suggest you look for the SOA record expire value.

    @Linux When I remove that server, I expect it to be gone.
