Ok here's what I've done so far. 1. setup an account with ultraDNS, we might end up using dyndns later 2. added our domain name as a secondary dns entry with ns1.scalr.net listed at the primary dns server 3. added the ultradns ip addresses to scalr's DNS zone config page, just click on the "here" link after "you want to deploy your own backup DNS"
I then ran an nslookup check: >nslookup set q=any mydomainname.tld I did not see our new dns in there. I've checked a bunch of times. I think I might have missed something... Thoughts?
