DNS Setup

My domain (rishon-rishon.com) suddenly stopped working. I checked the DNS in its registration, and for some reason it was

mica.mu.nu
ns.liquidweb.com

I don't know why - I set it up over 2 years ago and haven't touched it since. In any case, I changed it to

ns.mu.nu
ns2.mu.nu

and it's now been 24 hours and it's still not working. Is this right? Is there something that I have to do at the mu.nu end? Anyone know what's going on/how I can fix it?

1 That's exactly right, and I just tried it and it's working for me.

A very useful utility is the Squishywishywoo DNS checker at squish.net. It reports that rishon-rishon.com is set up just fine. It should certainly be working after 24 hours, and it's working for me, and it's set up correctly, so I'm a bit confuzzled.

2 Thanks, Pixy. It is working fine for me now. Guess it just took some time. But where did those old DNS values come from?

3 Could this be a problem? Here are the results I got at the Squish link:

4 I'd run into this problem a while back. It seems some ISP's Domain Name Servers don't see / recognize / point to the right place for the mu.nu domain.

I ended up using the DNS Server from a secondary ISP at work to access mu.nu sites.

There's an ISP in the northern US that was having problems for a while, but I haven't heard anything about it lately.
