Ok, So I should remove all existing information from the 'data' file and then proceed to use VegaDNS?

It overwrites existing information. It is recommended that you keep all tinydns records in VegaDNS if you plan to use VegaDNS to manage domains. If you do need to split up domains between VegaDNS and a static file, you'll need to modify update-data.sh to accomodate that. I believe one of the perl scripts in the contrib directory on www.vegadns.org has already addresses this, but I've never used it. Regards, Bill
