Same Domain And Nameservers, Two Servers
Aug 2, 2009
I 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.

Say 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

I have 2x servers with the following os/control panels:
1x Windows Server 2008 running Plesk 9.2
1x Centos 5.3 running cPanel/WHM
What I wish to do is to point all of my domains to the nameservers:
ns1.domain.com
ns2.domain.com
But, the domains hosted could be on either of the boxes above (because some sites are ASP.NET and others PHP).
Each of the above machines are running BIND and I have not yet setup nameservers on either of them. How should I proceed with this?
In addition (for arguments sake), if I then add additional servers how would I then achieve the same?
If there's already stuff around on the forum (I've done a search but found nothing specified to my issue of running a windows and linux box with completely different control panels) please point me in the right direction.

I run a small hosting company and i have been using multiple (different) nameservers for different servers, for example...
Nameserver IP
ns1a.domain.com 192.168.0.1
ns2a.domain.com 192.168.0.2
ns1b.domain.com 123.123.0.1
ns2b.domain.com 123.123.0.2
How do i make it so i can have ns1.domain.com and ns2.domain.com pointing to all different my servers?

Lets say for example I have 10 servers independent of each other. I want to be able to have only 2 Nameservers, NS1 and NS2 where all the domains should resolve to and then they should be handed off to one of the 10 servers. I dont want to have 20 Nameservers for example NS1 thru NS20 for all 10 servers. That would also be a waste of IP addresses.
I have a few murky solutions in mind. I would appreciate if someone would shed some light on the issue,

Can the same nameservers be used on multiple servers/vps on different geographical locations and if so, how are they setup? That would save me quite some money. Hoping for some input.

If 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

[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)

I 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?

Is 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.

I 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.

I'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

just 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! "

I 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?

I 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.

Will 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.

How would I go about setting up Bind on one of my Dedicated Servers? I noticed that you use three dns servers through pipedns and I thought you might be able to help me answer this question.
How would I be able to have my friends and I point our domains to my server(s) and have bind make it work? I want to have one dns server and then I have my friends each on there own DEDI using my bind dns servers but I'm not sure how to do this.
How would we add domains and the bind server know which server they are hosted on? Do you have to add the domains through bind? If so, how would I do that automatically and how would it work through cPanel when someone parks a domain?

I have a dedicated server and now I am thinking of getting my second one. I would like to ask if it is possible with cpanel to have
server1.domainA.com
server2.domainA.com ?
Do I just add a A entry for my host on the first server?
Which one the 2 will be doing the DNS? Could I have both of them?

I know reminds you of something else doesn't it? Seriously though, If I have 1 managed linux dedicated server (CentOS w/ cpanel v.11) and 1 managed windows dedicated server (Windows Server 2003 w/ Plesk 8) and want to the setup automatically through WHMCS under the same domain name (or appearance) how would I accomplish this task?
I know that I could simply add additional servers to the server configuration of 1 whmcs billing software installation. The problem is if I had to buy a separate domain for the other server and run them through 1 website it may appear shady to have the domain name change in the url during checkout.
I've seen few web hosts other both kinds of hosting through 1 website without redirecting to a different domain. If I have to have 2 different domains assigned to 2 different server boxes could I mask/cloak/I don't know the technical word for it so that the url appears as the same domain weather purchasing shared hosting for windows or linux?
