DNS Notes - This is how DNS tends to be set up for Eastnet hosted sites.

This will point most things to Google, except for the Web which will go into Eastnet. If the site is to be a Weblog then it needs an alias in /etc/apache2/sites-available/phatic.org and a site and alias in Wordpress. Then it should all work relatively well.
Sometimes, I remember to ask Scramworks for secondary DNS. The other secondary DNS's are generally hicom.org and ns0.uknet.net
