I've been trying to get some domains parked using DirectAdmin's domain pointers. I've searched for threads about this on Google, and followed the instructions. I go to Domain Pointers -> Add New Domain Pointer. I put the domain into the form field (leaving 'Create as Alias' checked) and click Add. I've waited for a few days to make sure there were no caching problems, and the domains still didn't resolve. The nameservers on my domain registrar are set correctly. I've parked domains before on CPanel and it worked just fine.
I am seriously confused mainly because of the way it was explained in my training at work. Can someone please give me an explantion of the difference between creating a cname record and using a domain pointer? My understanding is that they both effectively do the same thing which is allow one ip address to be used for different domains.
Extra marks given for an easy to understand analogy as i'm definately a visual learner.
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?
I have a reseller account that is hosted at ns1 / ns2.mydomain.com and it is configured via cPanel / WHM and is accessed by mydomain.com
I recently purchased a dedicated server and would like the dedicated server to have a ns3 / ns4.mydomain.com I also would like that the dedicated server be accessed by another domain (other than mydomain.com). Is this possible?
If that is not possible, what way is a good way of doing this?
I'm new to using directadmin and I've got a problem; I've not yet switched the DNS over to the directadmin server 'cause I want to make sure the sites work first, however I can't find how to view the sites. With cpanel you can go to http://192.168.1.1/~username (where 192.168.1.1 = IP of server and username is username of account). is this possible with directadmin? I can't find anything about it, anywhere.
My server has been kernel panicking on and off irreguarly every 2 days or so since I upgraded to cPanel 11, I'm not entirely sure whether this was the cause however I've isolated the fact it is a kernel issue. I am running CentOS 4.5 and was running Kernel "2.6.9-42.0.8.ELsmp" however switched to the kernel I was running before (2.6.9-42.0.3.ELsmp) and the same issue is still cropping up.
I thought that it may be a memory addressing issue or the like, however from looking up the issue, several C programming forums seem to suggest dodgy applications, the memory usage on the server does always seem fairly low and loads are generally healthy so this would seem to be supported.
The logs before the server kernel panics are as so:

I am receiving errors while executing domainname.com/cgi-bin/folder/filename.cgi files in directadmin. The error is Internal server error.
I have tried the below things,
./script.cgi : no errors found checked domain log : got premature end of script headers checked suexec log : No errors Checked the permission : all the files and folders under cgi-bin is 755
i just sign up a directadmin vps package, this is the direct admin that i saw once i login, is quite different from the direct admin that i normally saw, is this normal?
when i check with the support, they just tell me nothing is wrong and ask me if i wan they will just rebuild the vps, any one that using direct admin vps using this kind of interface?
Quite simple - does anybody know of any Directadmin resellers?
Me (and my customers) are used to directadmin so that is the control panel I would like to use on my servers. However not all hosts offer directadmin, and that means I would have to get it from directadmin.com myself.
The main 'issue' with this is pricing. Single licenses cost $29 per month. While a reseller can get the same license for a one-time fee of $49. That means turning a profit in 1.5 months when going that way instead of single licenses.
Does anybody know of a way to buy these one-time licenses? I am aware of the fact that they do not include support, that is fine.
74.63.67.146 - my main server. I have also configured my main domain to "own" this IP address and have installed an SSL cert. The domain and the cert work correctly but when you type in the IP address in, it shows "Apache is functioning normally".
74.63.67.147 - this is owned by a client. Same thing happens as above except that the domain name and the IP address point to the Apache message.
74.63.67.148 - this is the shared IP. Everything works correctly.
74.63.67.149 - this is another owned IP and it works correctly.
I know I should be asking DirectAdmin this question, but I do not want to wait until Monday. I want to know if DirectAdmin allows VMware VPSes on their VPS license. I know cPanel does.
which is better, LXAdmin or DirectAdmin? I have decided to sign up with world-of-computing.com. They have a promo code for free DirectAdmin. Should I go for it or use the 25%off promo code? The virtualization technology used is OpenVZ.
Does anyone have any experience with them? I had chatted with a Sales Rep for 45 minutes and he has been really helpful. But I know that support for sales and service is entirely different.
Also which OS should I go for (CentOS4/CentOS5/Fedora7/Debian4/Gentoo4/OpenSuse 10/Ubuntu 8.04)?
On average, how much memory does cpanel use when compared to a standard directadmin setup?
I've never had a chance to use directadmin before, but I've been reading quite a bit about it around the web and that it uses much less memory than cpanel.
Anyone used both? Which is better for VPS hosting?
I was just wondering about DA memory load. Like CPANEL load around 300mb and LXADMIN about 20mb. I was going to get VPS with 256 only to host 40-50 church sites with just static html, not dynamic or anything. Greatly appreciated with your input. I'm still learning all of this
need to know if SSL VPN(adito) can be install together with live hosting using directadmin. Can both of it can work together if yes!1 how to do it. here's example to install SSL Vpn
