NameServers For One Domain On One Dedi
Mar 10, 2008Is it really necessary to use up 3 IPs for one domain and two nameservers just to run one domain on one dedicated server?
to install a site we built for a client on their dedicated server.

Add A Domain To My Dedi Box
May 12, 2007About 4 days back i ordered and got a Xeon dedicated box from Softlayer
BUT i am stuck adding one domain. First i tried making a new account for this domain through WHM but problem was not solved, so today i parked this domain to a domain's cPanel account but after that also problem was not solved
So, let me first explain you whole problem. Suppose my domain is my-domain.com
This domain my-domain.com was added to shared hosting account at ace-host.net. But after purchasing dedicated server, i shifted whole site data to new server and changed the nameservers of my-domain.com with new ones and atlast i removed this domain from my Ace-host.net account.
Then i waited for about 2days to domain to propagate with new server's namesevers. But when nothing happened (i checked the domain whois record, they were showing my new server's nameservers), atlast i contacted Softlayer regarding this and after sometime they replied We have given the correct server alias for your domain my-domain.com in apache configuration and it was working fine that monent.
But after sometime i checked that my-domain.com is loading fine but it is taking whole data (including database and templates) from my OLD HOST ... Ace-host.net!
As i have already mentioned that i have already deleted my-domain.com from Acehost account and also updated the my-domain.com's nameservers with new dedicated server's.
And i checked many times WHOIS records from different websites at that moment. All were showing nameserver records of my new server.
I now contacted PSM and they after sometime replied that its working now as they just had to restart dns server.
BUT NOW , today again samething is happening! (on the 4th day)
so, i terminated my-domain.com's account from my server's WHM. and then parked in other domain cPanel account on same (Softlayer) server but still problem is still there!!
Domain is registered at Namecheap.com
NOTE: I am not saying anything against PSM or Softlayer and their support staff. They are both THE BEST in the market! and they have helped me a lot manytimes.
I also have two more domains on this new server and both are working fine from very first day. They are registered with local registrar not with namecheap.
Nameservers Different To Domain
Nov 2, 2009If I have nameserver different to my hosting domain is it a problem?
example I have website AnonyHosting.com and I use AHpanel.com as my nameserver and portal/ticketing system at backend for AnonyHosting.com
Nameservers & Domain
Sep 6, 2007I have one domain on iDotz.net i put in my WHM the nameservers anda the domain.
By the way, 6 hours passed and the website link is not working, anyway, the ns1.yourdomain.com & ns2.yourdomain.com is working and associated with the ip adress.
1 Domain, Different Nameservers Engine (ip)
Jul 16, 2009i have nameservers in my domain (let's say [url]n [url] that registered for my first vps, i want to make 2 more nameservers from my domain for my second vps [url]n[url]so i have 1 domain with 4 nameservers in 2 vps (2 ns in each vps), it would be like this.
[url]= vps1
[url]= vps1
[url]= vps2
[url]= vps2
ns1 n ns2 is working (can connect to the first vps), but ns3 n ns4 isn't work (cannot connect to the second vps), in different way i tried to make ns3 n ns4 for the second vps with different domain and it's work, it would be like this.
[url]= vps1
[url]= vps1
[url]= vps2
[url]= vps2
so, i wanna ask can i use 4 nameservers in 1 domain for 2 vps? i mean use one domain for more that one ip (different engine)
Same Domain And Nameservers, Two Servers
Aug 2, 2009I have two VPS packages.
Both are running exactly the same stuff - Centos 5.3, cPanel/WHM, etc
One domain (example.com), already pointing to first server (server1)
Nameservers (ns1 & ns2.example.com) are set up in WHM of server1.
I then bought a second VPS (server2). I want to be able to set up subdomains of my main domain (sub.example.com) on the second VPS. I also want my existing nameservers to work for server2.
This way, I can provide subdomain packages to people and utilise both servers, and I can also provide the same nameservers to people regardless of the server they are on.
I went to the clustering section of the WHM's, I enabled, and I can see server1 in the WHM of server2, and the other way around. I selected Sync Changes under DNS Role. However I don't think that's really done anything.
How can I get this to work? Sorry if I've written it in a confusing manner.
Run A Domain On Different Nameservers And IP Addresses
Jul 31, 2008I am currently building a site for a customer who currently has a website hosted somewhere on a shared ip address. I need to add them to my server so i can build their MYSQL database and start using it.
is their a way i can still change their nameservers to my server but still have their domain forward to the old site while im working on the new one?
So I guess my question is how can i forward a domain to an site with a shared ip address?
Verify If Domain Is On Nameservers
Apr 6, 2008I have a domain: myname.com
whose nameservers have been already update to the new host's nameservers: ns1.myhost.com and ns2.myhost.com
The new NS for the domain was already propagated over 1 day ago.
However, it seems that myname.com is not yet resolving at myhost.
How can I check whether myname.com is on ns1.myhost.com nameservers?
I have yet no shell access, and it is shared hosting.
New Domain - Can't Change DNS, Can't Use Nameservers,
Apr 10, 2007I'm stuck. First let me explain how my current sites are setup. I have all of my personal domains through GoDaddy at the moment. I set each domain to point to GoDaddys default hosting nameservers. Then I create DNS A Records for my domain pointing to the IP of my webserver. That works.
I recently purchased a domain name from a backordering service. This domain is with a different registrar. They do not offer any kind of managed DNS and will not create A records for me. My server is not setup as a nameserver so I can't do either. I also can't transfer the domain over to GoDaddy because of ICANNs two month rule.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do? Is there a service out there where I can point to their nameservers and they will send traffic to my servers IP?
I'm not as sharp on this topic as I probably should be
Parking Nameservers As Domain In Cpanel
Nov 1, 2009just purchased a reseller hosting to provide a value added service for my seo clients .
I requested my domain registrar to setup my own nameserver i.e, the site i have registered for reseller web hosting nameserver, lets say it as ns1.myresellersite.com, ns2.myresellersite.com
I got a confirmation from domain registrar support that its been setup in my account. I have checked using my reseller site nameserver for a test site and the site is working fine and also shows my nameserver in whois details.
now my problem is i wanted to host a site so that new clients can go to my web hosting site i.e; www.myresellersite.com and can purchase my hosting plans through checkout.
I tried to park domain in my cpanel of reseller hosting but it says
"Error from park wrapper: You cannot park your main domain! "
Setting Up A Main Domain And Nameservers
Apr 24, 2009I have recently just purchased an unmanaged vps from poundhost. I have never used a vps before so we shelled out for a WHM control panel! The issue now is that we do not have a nameserver set up or any main domain to use as a nameserver.
We have the main IP address and two additional IP's given to us by poundhost, how do I use these to start hosting and managing websites?

Multiple Servers Same Domain's Nameservers
Feb 11, 2007Say if I have a domain www.example.com.
And two completely different physical dedicated servers with IPs 11.11.11.11 and 22.22.22.22
Is it possible to make a nameserver,
NS1.EXAMPLE.COM (33.33.33.33)
NS2.EXAMPLE.COM (44.44.44.44)
^^^^^^^^^
(The two IPs of the nameserver have been assigned to server 11.11.11.11)
to point to 11.11.11.11 and have two other name servers
NS3.EXAMPLE.COM (55.55.55.55)
NS4.EXAMPLE.COM (66.66.66.66)
^^^^^^^^
(The two IPs of the nameserver have been assigned to server 22.22.22.22)
to point to 22.22.22.22 and have two other name servers
I am pretty sure this wont work for some reason but I cant figure out why
Nameservers In VPS - Domain In Godaddy - Backup - How To Setup?
Aug 2, 2009I just got a VPS plan for the first time where I want to host several new websites. In the past I've used individual accounts to host a couple of other websites and haven't paid much attention to nameserver setup, just configured at my registrar whatever I was given from the hosting service.
So, I got a brand new domain to act as the host of the rest of the domains I'm setting up: www.example.com.
In the VPS I have setup this one as the default domain for nameservers: ns1.example.com
ns2.example.com
Question 1:
- Can I setup ns1.example.com and ns2.example.com as the nameserververs for www.example.com ? i.e. nameserver is used for the same domain in which it is named. Even if this is possible, is it a good idea or would it be better to host it somewhere else? When I try to define those as the nameservers in Godaddy I get the error message Nameserver not registered. What am I missing?
Other DNS questions
Question 2:
- If I host my nameservers in my VPS, I will need a separate IP for each one (ns1, ns2...and so on). Can I still use those IP's to actually host websites, or do I need additional IP's to host the actual sites? Any value in keeping each IP dedicated to a nameserver?
For example:
IP#1 = used for ns1
IP#2 = used for ns2
IP#1 = used for website 1
IP#2 = used for website 2
Question 3:
- Are DNS backup services valuable if I host my own nameservers? Any suggestions on good quality providers? Price not an issue.
Question 4:
- If I used DNS backup services for example.com will that apply to ns1.example.com and ns2.example.com which I used for my VPS? and therefore will be applicable to other domains I host? Does this make sense? Or would I need a separate backup for each domain I host? Can I use one backup for multiple domains?
Question 5:
- What are the drawbacks of hosting multiple sites under the same IP? I control all sites under these IPs
Question 6:
- Can somebody recommend a good resource to learn how IP, DNS, nameservers, etc work? Any book, paid website, video... anything ? While there's a ton of info on the web, all is scattered and none seems to be too detailed enough for somebody starting to learn about this.

View 6 Replies View RelatedWill The Nameservers Work If The Nameservers Are Pointed To A Parking Page
May 26, 2008Will the nameservers work if the nameservers are pointed to a parking page?
For example:
I need to change my nameservers to ns1.mywebhost.com and ns2.mywebhost.com
(nameservers are made up)
These nameservers are from my web hosting service provider. When I visit the nameservers, it shows up a parking page from a domain parking service (let's say NameDrive parking page)
Will the nameservers function correctly and will my websites work? I have this question because usually the nameservers that I use, they always point to a CP page or something like that rather than a parking page.

Reload A Dedi
Mar 11, 2008I asked my host to reload/rebuild my dedicated server as I wanted to clear my entire server so that I can used it for a brand new project but I was told that it would cost me $75 per server.
Am I able to engage a freelancer to do it rather than getting my hosting provider? I would also need to change the server hostname from www1.xxx.com to www1.yyy.com and the name server to be changed to ns1.yyy.com and ns2.yyy.com instead of ns1/2.xxx.com. In short, I do not want yyy.com to be traced back to xxx.com at all. I do not want a traceroute, cpanel or other means to link the two site together.
Email On My New Dedi
Dec 6, 2007i've purchased a dedicated box with Plesk webhosting, but i can't get the email forwarding services to work
The domain is registered with Domainsite, set in plesk to forward admin@domain.com to my gmail... and it doesn't work no matter what i try...
First settings i tried( I use domainsite's nameservers and set the dns in there, if you know a better/other way, please reply) blanked out the last 2 chars of the ip just in case
Code:
Record Type Record Host Record Answer TTL Priority (MX only) Create Date
A *.domain.com 84.244.-.- (delete) 300 2007-11-10 07:43:03
A domain.com 84.244.-.- (delete) 300 2007-11-10
well that didn't work, so i figured i needed a MX record
I added:
Code:
MX domain.com 84.244.-.- (delete) 300 10
but it still didn't work( i did wait a few days after each change)
Then i tried the domainforwarder from Domainsite itself
which added 2 records:
Code:
MX domain.com mx0.domainsite.com (delete) 300 10 2007-12-01 12:17:37
TXT domain.com v=spf1 a mx ~all (delete) 300 2007-12-01 12:17:37
but it still doesn't work
i'm also getting mails bounced back with the line: "Reverse DNS lookup for your IP address is failing."
what changes need to make?

Which DC Should I Resell Dedi Servers
Jan 3, 2009I had shortlisted a few, although there may be more choices..
SoftLayer have lesser discount, but they have an excellent DC, hardware & more~
Gigenet have up to 30% discount and 15% at least, which is a plus, but I'm not sure about other stuffs, although they are also pretty reputable around..
LimeStoneNetworks have very little discount, and their servers are cheap, but their specs are pretty much *fixed*, and they do not seem to offer as much as the above..
HandyNetworks have cheap servers too, but they are not as competitive with the above 3, in the sense that they are not much interested to join the competition, remaining on their own track completely..
HiVelocity - No information, although their requirement is pretty simple..
Take2Hosting, although they have really cheap servers, their datacenter isn't as advanced as the others, and... Cogent... IMO more suitable for personal use, small sites etc.
IMO I will prefer SoftLayer, but their servers are quite expensive, so even if I get 4 dummy servers, which cost $119(their cheapest server) and multiple by 4 is $476, and get a server used to sell hosting, it will not be cheap.. However, on the other end, Gigenet has cheaper servers(especially their specials, really better than SL), although their entry server is $154, which I suppose everything will balance out, I just can't think of anything they can be better than SL, in terms of network, support, server administration(I heard and tried SoftLayer's portal to manage the server, it was excellent!) etc.
I will actually love to resell Gigenet servers, since it is a lot cheaper(in terms of discount), and their prices are roughly the same(except SL RAM is more expensive)..

Possible Problem With The Ethernet Of My Dedi
Nov 4, 2009i have recently get this server , we moved to this server in the same datacenter
Linux OS:centos 5.4
Kernel Version(uname -r) 2.6.28.7
Hardware Information:icore7 920 + 12gb ram
Software Version;csf firewall, ossec Intrusion Detection System, rvsitebuilder
Control Panel(if any)whm+ fantastico
yesterday the dc tech logged-in by ssh (root) cause we couldn't connect to the ftp box we keep our backup's (the new box couldnt connect to the ftp got time out)
They fixed it.
Today i got a time out and after 2 reset and restaring of services the server was back again.Then i got this messages and it still coming (3 hours now i get 1 similar message per 5 second )
Code:

Also the firewall stopped the port scanning from a server within the same dc.
I checked it on google and the explanation's varies but most say that is a problem of the router/switch or similar.
