I've just installed whm on my new server at leaseweb and wanted to know what nameservers I should put down in whm?
Is it ns1.localdomain.com or ns1.leaseweb.nl?
I suppose I can't set nameservers for my own domain since I've only got one Ip and I would need 2?
I recently moved hosts and also decided to use what I hope is a more reliable DNS / nameserver setup. So I signed up at everydns.net. I surfed and read for hours and got more confused the more I read.
I finally set up my accounts with the corresponding records as follows:
*.mysite.com CNAME mysite.com
mysite.com A 123.123.123.123
mysite.com MX (10) 1mail.mysite.com
www.mysite.com A 123.123.123.123
My questions are:
1 - Is this pretty much right?
2 - should I have a second MX recored like:
mysite.com MX (10) 2mail.mysite.com
I'm using 4 nameservers >> ns1.everydns.net, ns2.everydns.net, ns3.everydns.net, ns4.everydns.net,
I just purchased my first dedicated server. It comes with WHM 11.2.0 / CentOS Enterprise 5 i686.
Could someone please refer me to a guide to setup the nameservers? I've tried to follow some guides i found on google but still I can't get websites to resolve.
How do I know my nameservers are working? When I ping them they display the proper IP's and when I enter them in a browser it goes to the cpanel default site that it should but when I park domains to them, they don't work.
Could someone please maybe give me a guide for WHM 11.2.0? Also, some of the guides said to modify /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/nameserverips. I did modfiy /etc/resolv.conf to my information.
If it would make it easier, pretend i'm trying to add ns1.domain.com and ns2.domain.com as nameservers with the hostname server.domain.com and domain name domain.com. I want ns1.domain.com on ip 74.47.74.47 and ns2.domain.com on ip 74.47.74.48. What would /etc/resolv.conf look like after and what would /etc/nameserverips look like after? And what are the steps to take in WHM to set it up?
I hope I posted on the right section..
I have setup ISPconfig on a VPS (that was given to me for free)..
I have one dedicated IP, and I used a .co.cc domain to access my server..
now, my question is, how do I setup name server? what name server should I use to point the domains that I will host on my server?
Sorry if this sounds confusing its my first time. So i have an account at ev1servers.net/theplanet.com when i signed up i was asked for a domain i could use for the servers main domain which we'll call maindomain.com, my question is when you setup private nameservers do they have to be setup for the main domain e.g. ns1.maindomain.com, ns2.maindomain.com? What i did was setup the name servers for a domain account on my server and i couldn't get it to work which leads me to believe it has to be the main domain.

Custom DNS Server Addresses
=============================
The custom DNS addresses you should set for your domain to use are:
Primary DNS: ns1
Secondary DNS: ns2
You will have to login to your registrar and find the area where you can specify both of your custom name server addresses.
After adding these custom nameservers to your domain registrar control panel, it will take 24 to 48 hours for your domain to delegate authority to your DNS server. Once this has taken effect, your DNS server has control over the DNS records for the domains which use your custom name server addresses.
they didn't give me any nameserver DNS....
How can i get my domain hosted onto my VPS asap? Step by step instructions really needed. thank you.
Also, i have 2 free IPS.
I am wondering how to set up a nameserver on my new VPS with 1and1.
I have all my domains hosted on netfirms.
This is what I have done, but doesnt seem to be working:
i have a domain ex: mycompany.com on netfirms and i created an A Record that is ns1.mydomain.com that points to the ip of the VPS ex: 55.55.55.55
I have also created an ns2.mydomain.com. I did this through the netfirms control panel
Is there anything else i need to do?
I would like to setup a caching Bind nameserver for which I need to modify the file /etc/named.conf. The file is automatically created by Plesk however and I am unable to find information on how to modify the file in Plesk.
Code:
#ATTENTION!

#DO NOT MODIFY THIS FILE BECAUSE IT WAS GENERATED AUTOMATICALLY,
#SO ALL YOUR CHANGES WILL BE LOST THE NEXT TIME THE FILE IS GENERATED.
// $Id: named.conf,v 1.1.1.1 2001/10/15 07:44:36 kap Exp $
Any way to modify named.conf?
My provider just gave 1 IP and to be use as shared IP for every accounts created in the server. I also assigned that IP for my nameserver ns1.domain.com at my registrar.
I was instructed also by my provider to use the next IP for the second nameserver which I also created at my registrar and created dns zone at the whm. All of the domains using that two IPs are working but I dont know why when I ping the second dns its not working. from Intodns.com its also showing nameserver 2 as an error..
My question is, do I need to add the second IP on the server/whm? you see when I go to WHM and click Show IP Address Usage I only see the first IP shared to all other domains. Somehow I'm expecting to see the second IP on the screen.
Anyone can enlighten me? the server I got should have been a full management but my provider is somehow responding so slow.
I use my web server as its own nameserver. I know the potential draw backs of this, but it works fine for me.
I have recently moved server and need to configure my new server to work as my nameserver.
I use one of the server administration companies people talk about here, but they seem to be unable to configure this for me. As a result my server is down (can't be reached due to nameserver issues).
Does anyone know off hand how I can do this myself?
I purchased a new dedicated server out of Canada and received my login and IPs. I added them, setup WHM, updated WHM to newest version along with PHP 5.25, Mysql 5.0 and set it up to the best of my knowledge and transferred all my accounts from my previous semi-dedicated WHM. I have my own nameservers with Tucows register and transferred the new IPs on Friday at 2:00 pm CST. It is now sunday at 6pm CST and they seem to have propagated i think, but DNSreports still show errors on lucentone.com and ns1.lucentone.com. I checked all files in /etc folder and even did the rndc fix for WHM and Restarted Bind.
i went back in after contacting datacenter to ask them to help me and they dont know what could be wrong. I have no managed support on my Box but i know some linux and CPanel but never setup DNS, IPs and a Cpanel from scratch install with the zone files, this was my first time. Frustrated with this whole thing and staying up until 4am trying to fix these problems for the past 2 days. i finally got fed up as all my customers accounts are down and decided to do another updating of WHM and found that now my Dig has authorative records, but still DNSrepot and others are showing still problems with my nameservers. There has to be something still wrong. I dont know if i have the localhost set correctly as i have also added a S01.lucentone.com for my server host.
Maybe this is the problem, but i have never done this before. Can anyone help me with this?
If anyone could help me, this would be much appreciated. i am about to pull my hair out. :-)

This can cause some serious problems (especially if there is a TTL discrepancy).

I'm used to setting up the nameserver using a control panel (directadmin)
but how do you do it on a server without a control panel?
So far I figured that you just
set up 2 ip addresses in your registrar to use as nameservers
and then
edit /etc/named.conf and put the path to the zone file and of course set up the zone file /var/named/nameofzonefile.db
then service named restart
are these steps correct? am I missing anything?
Could nameservers be setup in cpanel/WHM between multiple VPS so they could be used across them all or would that require dedicated servers?
View 5 Replies View RelatedWell, the ns1.NAME.com and ns2.NAME.com is done. It works and links to the right place.
My host name is "dog.NAME.com" and links to the main server IP (example 1.1.1.1). So when i try to do this:
1.1.1.1/~NAME, it redirects me to dog.NAME.com which is good but then dog.NAME.com can't be found.
Server not found is the exact error i get. The IP works. i don't know what i am doing wrong.
My host said they will charge me to fix it, so i am relaying on you guys to save me money.
1) I use DNSMadeEasy for a couple of my important domains so I can utilize their failover service.
2) I use my own nameservers for everyone else.
At my register (GoDaddy) I've added host entries to my domain (let's call it host.com) for ALL of my nameservers: DNSMadeEasy and mine. For example here are my host entries:
1) nsdme0.host.com = 55.55.55.55 (DNSMadeEasy)
2) nsdme1.host.com = 56.55.55.55 (DNSMadeEasy)
3) nsdme2.host.com = 57.55.55.55 (DNSMadeEasy)
4) nsdme3.host.com = 58.55.55.55 (DNSMadeEasy)
5) nsdme4.host.com = 59.55.55.55 (DNSMadeEasy)
6) ns1.host.com = 60.55.55.55 (mine)
7) ns2.host.com = 61.55.55.55 (mine)
At the register I've then configured host.com to use the first five nameservers for itself, the DNSMadeEasy nameservers.
For less critical sites that I host I simply point them to ns1.host.com and ns2.host.com, my nameservers.
Now, here's the twist. If I use dig to look up www.host.com I get:
[root@lax1 ~]# dig +trace www.host.com
; <<>> DiG 9.3.3rc2 <<>> +trace www.host.com

What I've realized is that the actual IP addresses for nameserver host entries come from a higher level server than my own, in this case H.GTLD-SERVERS.net. I guess this makes sense but I just hadn't realized it before. It looks like I don't even need to have record entries in my DNS records for the host nameservers.
Now for the question. Can I:
1) Remove my custom host nameserver entries from my register.
2) Add entries in my DNSMadeEasy records to specify the location of ns1.host.com and ns2.host.com.
3) Use the failover provided by DNSMadeEasy to also fail-over my DNS entries for my nameservers?
I know this would require one more hop if it works but it would allow me to provide failover ability to fifty domains without having to purchase the extra domains at DNSMadeEasy.
