Location Of The Domain Name Server (DNS) Is Important ?
we have a server where we run sites and emails, but now we are going to buy a offsite email solution (based on ms exchange) in order to have our emails running when our web server is down.

But at the momment we run our own dns at our webserver using our own nameservers, in order that our emails keep working during a webserver downtime, we need to host our dns server at another location. So the offsite email company that is based in usa, said to us that they can host our dns at their datacenter in usa.

So i will have a configuration like this:

Webserver >> location: Spain
Mail Server >> location: USA
DNS Server >> location: USA

note: 99% of my website visitors came from Spain

So my question is:

Does it matters in terms of speed/performance having my dns server located in usa?

So in a simple way, will my website will it be fast with the dns located in spain, or having it in usa is exactly the same in terms of speed/performance?

DNS / Bind - Easiest Method To Redirect A Domain To Another
I've got two domains (for sake of example, domain A and domain B). Domain A resolves correctly to my web server. Domain B is just sitting collecting dust. I didn't set these domains up, a previous programmer at my job did.

How do I configure resolv.conf, named.conf and the zone file(s) correctly to have domain B redirect to domain A?

I've already set up httpd.conf so that any requests for the host name of domain A will redirect.

e.g. [url]-> [url]
I just need the DNS part of this fixed (that I'm a bit of a noob at).

Do I have to do something like this in named.conf:

Code:
zone "domaina.com" {
type master;
file "/var/named/domaina.com.hosts";
};

zone "domainb.com" {
type master;
file "/var/named/domaina.com.hosts";
};
Then in the domaina.com.hosts zone file add an alias like this?

Code:
domainb.com. IN CNAME domaina.com.
Or do I need to create a domainb.com.hosts zone file with basic info emulating domaina.com.hosts zone file, and add its entry in named.conf?

Domain Name Server (DNS) Hosting On A VPS
I need to make a dns hosting for a client of mine. He will change his domain name nameservers to point to my server.

His website is hosted on another hosting company. On my server I will create all the necessary CNAME and A records to point www on the server of the other company.

My problem is with the MX records though. Because my client owns a local mailserver, (I think it's MS Exchange server) I need to create a primary MX record to deliver all the mails to that mailserver. No problem till here.. But he also needs a secondary MX record in case his mailserver is inaccessible ,so all the mails have to be queued on my VPS and when his mailserver is accessible again to deliver all the mails.

Any idea of how I can configure my dns zones for that?

Serve Images From A Different Location Based On IP
We have a major chunk of our traffic coming in from Asia and our servers are in the US. The latency is an issue which we have sorted out by ensuring we use Amazon's cloudfront CDN atleast for the static images.

Now while this is working rather well, we are now wanting to experiment and see if we could put up an additional image server in our country to serve IPs from that specific range.

In case the local image server goes down, the amazon cloudfront setup should be used. What are the best options for achieving this with the least amount of latency for the users?

Redirect To Folder Based On Login Info With .htaccess
Here is the situation.

I would like for people to go to [url] and be prompted for a login (.htaccess). Then depending on the login, redirect to the appropriate folder.

Example.

User 1 logs in as example1 with password xxxxx. It redirects them to domain.com/whatever/example1 with the successful login.

User 2 logs in as example2 with password xxxxx. It redirects them to
domain.com/whatever/example2 with the successful login.

Is this even possible with .htaccess? If not, is there any way to do this via a php script or anything?

Are Patched Domain Name Server (DNS) Behind N.A.T. Still Vunlerable To DNS Cache Poisoning?
Upon reading http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/08...sky_black_hat/ it appears those who use network address translation may be vulnerable to DNS cache poisoning even after patching their DNS servers.

"another 15 per cent are still vulnerable to some extent because they use network address translation gear that prevents the patch from working."

Thoughts?

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?

Does anyone know how to resolve "parked" domains automatically on Win2k3 DNS??

Redirect Domain To Www
The thing is that we have a dedicated server at our company hosting several domains, and right now you can access them both with the www prefix or without it, but there is no redirection in case you access without it, and this has negative impact with SEO related stuff.

I have the rewrite apache module enabled (I tested with a script I found on the net), and I also tried a test configuring a single domain including some code about redirection.

Right now I'm getting a nice "500 Internal Server Error"

This is the code in .htaccess

Code:
Option +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{http_host} ^mydomain.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ [url]
(mydomain.com is, obviously, a replacement for the real domain in both cases)

However I encounter problems as the emails from server2 won't reach server1 as there are duplicate profile on server2.

My question is how do I setup the DNS in cpanel/whm from server2 so the emails from server2 will reach server1?

Server1 (www.domain.com)
ns1.domain.com
ns2.domain.com

Server2
ns3.domain.com

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, I’m 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.

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?

Email And Domain Name Server (DNS)
I am having a slight email issue after moving my DNS to DNS Made Easy. On my wordpress blog I have it set to email me comments which the blog does just fine but ever since the DNS change I am having a weird issue. I use gmail for my email which threads emails. Now everytime I get a comment on the blog wordpress sends a new email and gmail doesn't thread them like it used to.

Do i need to add something to my DNS for mail. I never added anything and the server is obvisoulsy sending mail. Yep I am a noob and a little lost. I hope you understand what I am getting at here.

* GMAIL threads emails
* After DNS Change GMAIL is not threading my wordpress comments only
* Never added anything to DNS records in regards to email from the server
Thanks a lot guys. hope you got an idea. I did search google and wordpress with no luck.

I added a screencap of my DNS

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?

Domain Parking Server DNS
how to setup domain parking Name Servers so that anyone who have their domain DNS as
NS1.MYDOMAIN.COM
NS2.MYDOMAIN.COM

can park their website and the same page pulls up which is on MYDOMAIN.COM without any additional task required on my part.

I found some instructions to do this on Debian but Im not sure how I can implement that on MS DNS.

has anyone on SP ever done something like this?

Server Primary Domain And DNS
I got a new dedicated server, and I put the primary domain name to be zeonwebhosting.com.

However, when I setup the nameservers, and go to GoDaddy.com and NameCheap.com to change the nameservers on my domains, I get an "Errors were detected" on GoDaddy.com and a "nRRPResponseCode 531" on NameCheap.

I fixed everything in WHM and got a server administrator to fix some things for me, and it didn't work yet. Now I am thinking that the problem might not be with the server, but with the domain.

ZeonWebHosting.com is registered at GoDaddy.com, and since I was not sure what nameservers I should put as it is the primary domain name, I used the parked nameservers on GoDaddy, and used the Total DNS feature to change the A and MX Records to point to my server's IPs.

I tried putting the ns1.zeonwebhosting.com and ns2.zeonwebhosting.com DNSs on GoDaddy, but still I got the "Errors were detected" error. I tried almost everything possible. I even redid cPanel just to make sure that everything was OK with the cPanel configuration.

Also there is another problem with the server. I can't seem to be able to delete Nameservers from "Networking Setup > Nameserver IPs" in WHM. I get this message when trying to delete one of the nameservers:
"Sorry, the nameserver ip 66.79.191.196 cannot be removing since it is still registered with an ICANN register."
