DNS Issues - Domain Not Resolving Sometimes
Does anyone have experience with DNS issues?
I'm hosting a few sites with LiquidWeb (freeteams.net and laxteams.net are the big ones), who's been a terrific host, but I occasionally have some issues trying to access my sites. It occurs only occasionally (maybe 10-20 people have let me know in the past year), but with users in different locations and on different ISPs. It seems to also only occur for a couple of hours.
When they try to type in a specific domain, it won't show up in their browser (browser-independent, I've tried it in Chrome, IE, and Firefox.) However, when they try the IP address directly, the site works. I have about 4 sites on one server, all with their own IP address, and the issue doesn't affect all the domains at the same time.
LiquidWeb says it's an ISP issue (they've checked all the settings on the server, and everything looks ok.) I tend to agree with them, because when I or my users switch from using their ISP's DNS server to OpenDNS' server, it works. However, it's happened at a number of different ISPs around the U.S., including universities, which makes me think there's something I can do to solve the problem. Also, I don't want users to have to change their computer settings.
Also, while I can't access the domain in the browser, I am able to ping the domain, and it will respond.

Domain Does Not Resolve :: Domain Name Server (DNS) Issues
I've been having some DNS problems with one of my domains for quite some time now. The domain does not always resolve - some go days without being able to access the site. I ran a simple BASH script to show what I mean. I replaced my domain with "mysite.net" and the IP with "xx.xx.xxx.xxx". # for i in `seq 1 15`; do host mysite.net; done mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx mysite.net mail is handled by 0 mysite.net. Host mysite.net not found: 2(SERVFAIL) mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx Host mysite.net not found: 2(SERVFAIL) mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx Host mysite.net not found: 2(SERVFAIL) mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx Host mysite.net not found: 2(SERVFAIL) mysite.net mail is handled by 0 mysite.net. mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx Host mysite.net not found: 2(SERVFAIL) Host mysite.net not found: 2(SERVFAIL) mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx Host mysite.net not found: 2(SERVFAIL) mysite.net mail is handled by 0 mysite.net. mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx mysite.net mail is handled by 0 mysite.net. mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx mysite.net mail is handled by 0 mysite.net. mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx mysite.net mail is handled by 0 mysite.net. mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx Host mysite.net not found: 2(SERVFAIL) mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx mysite.net mail is handled by 0 mysite.net. mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx mysite.net mail is handled by 0 mysite.net. mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx mysite.net mail is handled by 0 mysite.net. mysite.net has address xx.xx.xxx.xxx mysite.net mail is handled by 0 mysite.net. Has anyone experienced a similar problem? I have gone over the DNS records countless times and see no problems. The site is hosted on my own dedicated server.

DNS Resolving
We have a full rack of servers at an XO datacenter. Most of these servers consistently need to go out to the internet to retrieve various URLs. Essentially, the servers are spidering, like Google does. Lately we have noticed that the DNS servers that XO provided, which are in the /etc/resolv.conf files for each server, have been randomly failing. Is there any reason that I can't set the servers to go to the root and use that for DNS? I need to bypass the XO DNS servers some how. One of the options that I am considering is setting up a dedicated server that can provide recursive DNS to my other servers and have that server ask the root DNS system for records when it is not in the cache. The other option that I am considering is finding a company that I can buy the ability to do recursive dns on. The onyl one that I have found so far is DynDNS though, and I have been looking for about two hours. [url] If anyone can make any suggestions to how I can get around the XO issue I am having or provide suggestions to a provider of recursive DNS servers (not managed, unless recursive comes with it),

Domain Names Not Resolving
Ocassionally some users have problems to connect the their websites, they can connect to the server via browser and can ping it and tracert the server IPs fine, they can also browse domains having a dedicated IP address. But they can't connect or ping their websites from their end, basically I think the domain name is not resolving. From our end and the rest of users everything works fine. Once I get a complain of this type I try whatever I can do Check to see if their IP is not blacklisted Restart named service Restart apache service But most of the time this doesn't work at all. Exactly as the problem comes it goes, nothing I did seems to have any effect on the solution. It goes and ocassionally reappears. Would you suggest me what would I do to find where the problem is and try to solve it.

Domain Not Resolving Properly
A client recently moved one of their domains to one&one (night mare I know) he then asked us to repoint the domain name to our servers using out name servers. We have done this and it is not resolving to our server. The problem is that the site is no longer showing and their emails are down. I used a domain dossier and the DNS record looks like it should be changed but I'd like some confirmation on this.

DNS Issues With CPanel
Has anyone else experienced strange DNS issues recently? Upon cPanel update, some DNS zones rebuild themselves which causes various other problems. For example, last night in the cPanel update, my server's main domain's DNS zone rebuilt resulting in the hostname and ns1 & ns2 going down causing problems for the rest of them. I've also received error emails about named going down after cPanel updates. I have asked around and apparently it's not only me? Are cPanel releasing some bugs of DNS in their cPanel updates... should someone let them know?

DNS Issues On LOCAL Network
Okay, so here's the issue. I've been searching for a solution for about a week now, and just can't seem to find any information. The company that I work for had me switch their site live so I went through and changed the DNS information and pointed the A records to the new server running an online store. I waited and waited and waited for the propagation to finish so I could keep working on developing the site. I talked to our hosting company and they assured me that they were being pointed to the new server and there was no issue. I changed the DNS on my own computer to point to openDNS and I could see that it did in fact change. We are now two weeks into the change and we can still not view the site from our network. I am in need of any ideas you can give me! If you ping the site with the default DNS server you receive the old IP Address but if you ping it with the openDNS IP in place, you receive the IP of the new server. I've gone through and run a /flushdns, /release, and /renew. I am working from a mac so advice geared towards this would be helpful however, I do have access to several machines running XP. Again, the site has propagated across the internet, just not in our office. I look forward to and appreciate any insight that you can offer with all of your eclectic wisdom.

DNS Resolution Issues. Whos Fault Is It
Recently ive gone through lot's of providers, and my latest one computhings.co.uk (was recommended) has recently lost support (their license expired) and my domain is having problems! I tried a tracert to track the problem and i get an error in resolving the domain name. My DNS servers are set to where they should be, and i can get to the servers via a web browser (ns1/ns2) but when accessing my domain i get a server not found. Is this my fault or their fault? As if its mine i will hang on and if its theirs im moving servers today!

Resolve DNS Issues On Cpanel 11.x Beta
I have come accross an issue with DNS in cpanel 11.x , where named.conf is badly configured by cpanel , Here is how a DNS report from dnsstuff.com would look because of this : FAILS for SOA record Fails for lame nameservers . Here's how to fix it , SSH to server , Backup your named.conf file by cp /etc/named.conf named.conf.back then pico /etc/named.conf Replace Code: include "/etc/rndc.key"; controls { inet 127.0.0.1 allow { localhost; } keys { "rndc-key"; }; }; options { /* make named use port 53 for the source of all queries, to allow * firewalls to block all ports except 53: */ query-source port 53; // Put files that named is allowed to write in the data/ directory: directory "/var/named"; // the default dump-file "data/cache_dump.db"; statistics-file "data/named_stats.txt"; memstatistics-file "data/named_mem_stats.txt"; }; logging { /* If you want to enable debugging, eg. using the 'rndc trace' command, * named will try to write the 'named.run' file in the $directory (/var/named). * By default, SELinux policy does not allow named to modify the /var/named directory, * so put the default debug log file in data/ : */ channel default_debug { file "data/named.run"; severity dynamic; }; }; // All BIND 9 zones are in a "view", which allow different zones to be served // to different types of client addresses, and for options to be set for groups // of zones. // // By default, if named.conf contains no "view" clauses, all zones are in the // "default" view, which matches all clients. // // If named.conf contains any "view" clause, then all zones MUST be in a view; // so it is recommended to start off using views to avoid having to restructure // your configuration files in the future. view "localhost_resolver" { /* This view sets up named to be a localhost resolver ( caching only nameserver ). * If all you want is a caching-only nameserver, then you need only define this view: */ match-clients { localhost; }; match-destinations { localhost; }; recursion yes; zone "."

Save file and exit then test config service named configtest if you have done this correctly , it should display something like this: zone blue.xxx.com/IN: loaded serial 2007070901 zone xxx.com/IN: loaded serial 2007070906 zone ns1.xxx.com/IN: loaded serial 2007070901 zone server.xxx.com/IN: loaded serial 2007071001 zone xxx.net/IN: loaded serial 2007071001 Then restart named by service named restart your DNS should be working now .

Ssl Issues Wild Card, Server Wide, Domain, IP
I have installed ssls before but this is a once a year task and each time it comes up again I have to learn it all over again When would I use a wild card *.mydomain.com as apposed to just mydomain.com I hear talk also of a server wide ssl how is this possible do you create the ssl for the IP rather than the domain What is the best way to do this on a dedicated box with WHM/cpanel to where my users have secure access to their webmail, cpanel client area etc. I've searched the forums but i dont see much on the different uses of ssls just instructions on installation

Host Will Only Update Domain Name Server (DNS) In Batches, Takes Several Hours For A DNS Change, Normal?
Host will only update DNS in batches, takes several hours for a DNS change, is that normal? Well today my mail stopped working and it turns out the A record for mail was deleted. How it got deleted I don't know. I called my host and after speaking to 2 techs, they said that have added my request to a batch, and that would update in a few hours. I said to him, batch? What can't you do it instantly? He said thats not the way their DNS works and any DNS change would affect thousands of other sites they are hosting. Does anyone know what kind of dns system these people could possibly have where they can not reload a single zone? And by affected, I think he means the sites will go down for a minute or so, while it relaods every zone. Is this really the case, or are these people just idiots?

Reverse Domain Name Server (DNS) ARPA For Domain On VPS
I have a vps with dedicated ip's for my domain names. I read that in order for mails coming from my server not be picked up as spam, i need to add reverse ip entries. Now i have already added the glue nameserver records on my godaddy control panel, ns1.mydomain.com -> 10.20.30.40 ns2.mydomain.com -> 10.20.30.41 But do i need to speak to the datacenter to add the reverse dns entries for my domain on their nameservers? What about if i host my nameservers offsite, but then have my webserver/mailserver etc inside the datacenter? Would i need to request the datacenter where the nameservers are hosted to add the reverse ip entries for the domain, and then the request the same from the datacenter for my web/mail servers to add the reverse entries? Is it really required?

Domain Parking - Wildcard Domain Name Server (DNS)?
We have a lot of unused domains that we'd like to setup domain parking for. To keep it simple, we'd like to just change the namesevers to ns1.domainparking.com and ns2.domainparking.com (not real nameservers!) and the domains would then automatically show a simple web page. We use cpanel servers and are wondering how easy this is to do? I've seem mention of wildcard dns? Is that the answer?

i have about 8 different domains i'd like to point to a nameserver (ns1./ns2.mydomain.com) on Win2k3 server, but i can't get them resolved through my nameserver without creating a manual forward lookup entry for each *parked* domain separatly.. Does anyone know how to resolve "parked" domains automatically on Win2k3 DNS?? I just can't find any answer for this, everything i've found required manual creation of lookup entries.. anyone?

DNS And Domain- Setting Up DNS With DirectAdmin
I've got DirectAdmin installed, and my domain name (misacampo.org) hosted with XeoDomains.com. I'm wondering how I set up my DNS so that whenever I point more domains to my VPS their DNS will be set to ns1.misacampo.com and ns2.misacampo.com. Would it be as simple as pointing my domain to my VPS IP, then setting up this in DirectAdmin?: Add Zone Domain Name: IP Address: Name Server 1: Name Server 2: Would I enter: Add Zone Domain Name: misacampo.org IP Address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx Name Server 1: ns1.misacampo.org Name Server 2: ns1.misacampo.org Then point my domain to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, and set it up my domain at XeoDomains.com like so: Add New Child Name Server Host Name: ns1.misacampo.org Ip Address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx and Add New Child Name Server Host Name: ns2..misacampo.org Ip Address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx Would this work? I'm looking to do a quick shift from my old CPS (LXAdmin) to my new VPS (DirectAdmin) with at little downtime as possible. Do I need to set up any other records for the domain for my email accounts to work, or would DirectAdmin take care of all this?

While Setup DNS For 1 Domain.de
One of our customers need to use a domain.de (.de ext), he registered the domain using godaddy, and godaddy have a few very special requirements for .de domains: The first 3 bits of the IP address (C-class) is different for each name server. A glue record is necessary for the domain on the name servers. The SOA (Start of Authority) must be within the following guidelines: refresh : 10000 - 86400 retry: 1800 -28800 expire: 604800 - 3600000 ttl: 180 - 345600 This is all done, 2 different C class IPs for each name servers, glue record, and SOA has been configured between specified values. Because of the 2 C class, we created DNS at server1, and pointed all www traffic to server2 (where the domain.de will be hosted) This is the DNS zone at server1 (an Ensim server): $ORIGIN . $TTL 3600 ; 1 hour sitename.de IN SOA nameserver1.server.com. support@hostingcompany.com. ( 2008010804 ; serial 10000 ; refresh (1 hour) 1800 ; retry (10 minutes) 604800 ; expire (2 weeks) 345600 ; minimum (1 hour) ) NS nameserver1.server.com. NS nameserver2.server2.com. $TTL 86400 ; 1 day A XX.XX.XX.XX $ORIGIN sitename.de. ftp A XX.XX.XX.XX www A XX.XX.XX.XX This is the DNS zone at server2 (an cPanel server): ; Modified by Web Host Manager ; Zone File for sitename.de $TTL 3600 @ 86400 IN SOA nameserver2.server2.com. support@hostingcompany.com. ( 2008010804 10000 1800 604800 345600 ) sitename.de. 86400 IN NS nameserver2.server2.com. sitename.de. 86400 IN NS nameserver3.server2.com. sitename.de. 14400 IN A XX.XX.XX.XX localhost.sitename.de. 14400 IN A 127.0.0.1 sitename.de. 14400 IN MX 0 sitename.de. mail 14400 IN CNAME sitename.de. www 14400 IN A sitename.de. ftp 14400 IN A XX.XX.XX.XX While checking the domain at [url], an error appears: Zone sitename.de. Primary nameserver1.server.com. IP_ADDRESS_HERE Secondary nameserver2.server2.com. IP_ADDRESS_HERE Test results ---- fatal ---- f: [TEST SOA record present]: server failure (IN/SOA: sitename.de.) * nameserver2.server.com./IP_ADDRESS_HERE I have verified every single thing at sitename.de.db on both servers at /var/named/, disabled DNS Recursion protection, stopped firewall, and the error continues. And the error as you can see only happens with SOA at second server.

Domain Dns And Configuration
I've recently been trying to get my domain name volmasoft.com onto my new vps. What i've done so far: * setup a host for ns1.volmasoft.com to go to 69.162.73.83 * setup a host for ns2.volmasoft.com to go to 69.162.73.84 * Set volmasoft.com to use ns1.volmasoft.com and ns2.volmasoft.com. After 3 days it's finally gone off the godaddy page and proporgated (or so I thought) I now get an "address not found" I can't trace the domain, nor ping it as it can't resolve the domain. However the whois does show that it's set to the ns1 and ns2 nameservers and IP of 69.162.73.83.

Domain Name Server DNS Pointing
Hello all, hope someone can help. I have a domain incl. hosting (fanferwalde.com) and three extra domain names, fanferwalde.nl , fanfalingasate.com , fanfalingasate.nl (all three without hosting) who I want to point to fanferwalde.com. Before I bought the extra domains I asked the provider if I could point the extra domains to the head domain (fanferwalde.com). Yes, that was possible they said so I bought the extra domains. I asked the provider to help with the configuration to point them to the head domain but they refused, I must do it by myself
.. There is no possibility they do it when I pay extra for it so I feel pressed to take also a hosting for the extra domains; then I can make a redirect on each index page. All domain names have an own DNS control panel. I have full access to this. The first picture is the DNS from the head domain. The second picture is the DNS from one of the extra domains I want to point to the head domain. What must I put where so the website from fanferwalde.com will appear when I write fanferwalde.nl in the browser? THANKS in advance!!! (Sorry for my bad English, Im Dutch)

Domain Name Server DNS Cluster
I´m running 4 servers on a cpanel - dns - cluster. - 1 running cpanel (srv01) - 3 running cpanel-dns-only (cluster01 - cluster03) My DNS config is: srv01 - dns1.domain.com cluster01 - dns2.domain.com I ´ve setup on srv01: - cluster01 (synchronize changes) - cluster02 (standalone) - cluster03 (standalone) On cluster01: - srv01 (synchronize changes) - cluster02 (standalone) - cluster03 (standalone) And on cluster02 and cluster03, I did something like that: - srv01 (synchronize changes) - cluster01 (synchronize changes) - cluster03 (standalone) And - srv01 (synchronize changes) - cluster01 (synchronize changes) - cluster02 (standalone) 1. So, is that correct? 2. It seems that when I click on 'syncronize all DNS records on all the servers' only cluster01 and srv01 got all the DNS records. So is it normal? Yet If I add a domain on cluster02 for example, where I need to add the DNS? cluster02 named.conf or on cluster01/srv01?

Domain Name Server (DNS) Changes With Subdomains
I currently have shared hosting, but am getting VPS with another company. I'd like to keep my domains on my original hosting and direct the domains to the new server. I've been reading and it doesn't seem that hard to change for a regular domain. The problem is I don't seem to understand how to do the same for a subdomain. I keep reading about the A record and CNAME, but just don't get it. Does anyone have any experience with this. Do I just put the IP address for the new server in the A record? I just want to make sure I know what's going on before I order my new hosting and find out it's not possible or something. I'm also curious if mail, like myname@mydomain.com will continue to work. Or is there something I need to change for this as well.

CPanel Domain Name Server (DNS)
After spending 1 hour wondering why all domains suddenly stopped working and the hosting server was showing no signs of fail. A simple dns service restart on my secondary dns server fixed this. Is there any way to auto restart the dns service upon failure on the cpanel dns only build? Also why would the secondary dns server failing, cause the domain to stop working. The primary dns/hosting server was fine.

Domain Name Server (DNS) Mixup
I am currently a hosting reseller. I moved all of my 44 accounts to a new reseller host, and I pointed my custom nameservers to the new host's IP's today. MAJOR PROBLEM - When you type in my domain of www(dot)shoppepro(dot)com, you see one of my customer's websites www(dot)alltiedupbowtique(dot)com!!!! My website should look like this: http : / / 74.86.84.168 / Besides that, 40 of my 44 accounts are down completely. I've opened a ticket at my reseller but no one is getting back to me. This is very embarrassing. I use cPanel/WHM. Can anyone offer a possible solution?

Domain Name Server (DNS)service?
Right now I've got some users with their own domains. If I ever want to switch hosts, they'll have to switch their DNS around themselves. I'd prefer to pay for a host-independent DNS so they'll never need to touch their DNS again. Is such a thing available?

Running Your Own Domain Name Server (DNS)
1) What does it take to run your own DNS server? 2) How to determine server specs? 3) Where to locate? 4) Do you need multiple server? 5) How do you manage DNS entries on the server? 6) Is there commercial software to do this? I've heard of PowerDNS. Where can I get more information on this subject?

Have I Got BIND Domain Name Server (DNS) Right?
Ive been learning alot about BIND and DNS, id like someone to check over what ive learn't to make sure my knowledge is correct. A Zone: A zone is basically 'similar' to a sub-domain but the domain google.com would not be a sub-domain, so a zone is not a sub-domain. In the domain google.com 'google' would be a deligated zone from the TLD 'com'. In another example: ny.google.com , 'ny' would be a zone for google's 'new york' department, if they had one. Hosts: The host name is usually the most left word in a domain or you can look at it as the leaves on an inverted tree in the DNS System. Examples: www.google.com = 'www' would be the host mail.sitepoint.com = 'mail' would be the host ny.google.com = 'ny' would NOT be a host because its a 'zone' and does not offer a 'service' like ftp, mail, www ect. would. Unless 'ny' was intended to be a service then it would be a host, but it would have to become a leaf in the inverted tree, so you wouldn't ba able to create any zones from it like 'mail.ny.google.com' ... if that makes sense. Nameservers: If i used BIND on my server to manage my Zones and DNS information (which is pretty much standard), that would be my Nameserver. Its job would be to convert human recognizable names into computer recognizable names/numbers/ip. My nameserver would only have authority over zones that are not deligated. So an example, 'com' deligate 'mydomainname' to me (mydomainname.com) they have no authority over that zone. So if i set up a nameserver on mydomain.com they have no authority over mydomainname or any zone under that. Domain Namespace The Domain Namespace was setup to replace the method used by ARPA (later DARPA) in the 60's in an effort to create a database of hosts that were easy to administer and reduced the time and server load on the old skool HOSTS.TXT method. A domain namespace is a way to identify the different domains. Im not to good at explaining what i mean but basically ill illustrate this example: google.com and google.net both have the same names, so the namespace in this example would the the TLD's 'net' and 'com' to seperate them. Go a bit deeper for example: cd.music.com and cd.disk.com , both have the same TLD and sub-domain's so the namespace here is the first-level domain 'music' and 'disk'. Sub-Domains Sub-Domains are similar to zones, in a way. A domain name: 'google.com' might have the sub-domain 'video.google.com' which links to the video section of google. 'video' is not a deligated zone from 'google' neither is it a host as such, so its a sub-domain. Im probably slightly confused on some parts, and im open for comments. I dont fully understand alot of it, but what ive learnt so far took a good day to get my head around. If anythings wrong, id like to know.

Domain Name Server (DNS) Needed
I need 2 dedicated DNS servers. I'd like one server on the east coast and one on the west or close to it. They will be used for primary ans secondary dns only. Simply running Bind and webmin. I need cheap servers since they are pushing dns data around. Not very bandwidth intensive or cpu resource intensive. The most important thing is that the backbone redundancy is amazing. You can get a good server at a lot of place these day, but who has the staff and backbone to make sure these servers are not bottlenecked and up and running.

Confused About Domain Name Server (DNS)
My domain registrar does not have the facility to create nameservers which means I can't create my own DNS for my websites. I wanted to create ns1.smsmasters.co.uk and ns2.smsmasters.co.uk as my DNS. Does 123-reg allow you to setup your own nameservers and assign an ip? I'm really confused as to what to do. In the past I used my host's DNS.

Moving Domain Name Server (DNS) ...
I'm trying to move sites from one cPanel server to another. Presently, I am using the clustered DNS option in WHM to keep the two servers DNS in sync, which has allowed me to avoid messing with switching name servers for domains as I moved them. Now, I'm looking to turn off the original server, but that server is the one hosting the name servers that most of the domains use (ns1 and ns2.serverforest.com). I'd like to move those name servers over to the new server, which I presume is as simple as re-registering them in the control panel over at my registrar. However, I presume I also need to bind IPs on the new server to the original DNS names. However, if I do that and the DNS cluster syncing occurs, won't that mess things up while I await the registrar making the changes? Do I need to turn off clustering before making the switch? Is there a way to do this seamlessly? Also, for testing purposes I created ns3 and ns4.serverforest.com on the new server. If I now want to move over ns1 and ns2, can I set them on the same two IPs that ns3 and ns4 "own" without any trouble?

Managed Domain Name Server (DNS) ...
So i am planning to move my clients from one server to another and the problem is i want to minimize downtime or have absolutely no downtime. On top of all of this, i plan on moving the server again as i get more money to do it. Anyways, here is the current situation.... mydomain.com has the following nameservers ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com My clients are also using ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com I wanted to move my DNS to a managed DNS solution somewhere else and then do the change of servers. Would this be the right way to go about things? Or am i forgetting something? Would it be frowned upon the the hosting industry to have my DNS hosted somewhere else? And last, if i do what im trying to do, how do i do it? lol. I need to keep ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com still active.

VPS - IP And Domain Name Server (DNS)
I'm going to start to configurate a VPS and I have a few questions, please help me. 1- If I have a VPS and I want to have some domains there, Do I need private nameservers? Is there any other way to go? (for example, could I use the DNS of my provider?) 2- How many IP Addresses do I need for a VPS? I think if I have to use private nameservers I'd need two IP for them. Is it correct? And if I want to have reverse DNS for my Host, I think I would need a IP address to be used on for that. Is it correct? So, I would need at least 3 IP Addresses. Is it correct? 3- Is it possible to use a VPS with only two IP Address? Many VPS providers give you only two IP Addresses. Could I use 1 IP Address for DNS and reverse DNS for my Host at the same time? Is it not a problem with hotmail, yahoo, gmail, etc?
