cpanel expired on machine, but active on cpanel site
HiAbout a week about my cpanel became inactive. I have a FDC Virtual Dedicated Server on Fedora Core 3. At first I thaught my liscense had ended and my host would update it, after a few emails with my host, I found that my IP and all my domains were actually listed as active at the cpanel site.
My site host indicated the problem probably lied with my DNS setting and said I should try and sort the issue out or get them to reistall the VDS (an option i would prefer to avoid).
So after numerous search queries on google and this forum I have tried a few things, unfortunatly none of them have worked and im still faced with this problem.
I would be very grateful for any help or suggestions.
Some idea of what i have tried.
-checked if my hostname resolves to the right IP
-checked that my servers public IP was correct
Code:
root@spaceboy [~]# curl cpanel.net/myip/ x.x.x.x
Code:
/usr/local/cpanel/cpkeyclt
-I temporarily flushed my firewall rules (iptables -F). And afterwards gave cpkeyclt a try.
No luck so far, so if any one has any ideas I would love to hear them.
Please note i am not very experienced with linux and configuration but am an experienced programmer, so when responding please try and explain some of the less obvious terms, if you get what i mean.

Thanks for your time people.
