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?
Just got a new dedicated box (Fedora 5/CPanel/WHM). I didn't realize I had to set up my own nameservers with it. Definitely not a subject I am well versed in. Anyone know where I can find out how to get started?
View 9 Replies View Relatedis it possible to use one IP address for both name servers. For Example
ns1.yourdomain.com - 193.174.32.18
ns2.yourdomain.com - 193.174.32.18
I have the domain name "www.citedata.net"
With this domain name, I registered the nameservers:
"ns1.citedata.net" >> 208.109.30.9
"ns2.citedata.net" >> 208.109.30.11
I am using Plesk 8.1 and here is how I had setup the DNS information in the Plesk control panel:
PHP Code:
208.109.30.9 / 24 PTR citedata.net.citedata.net. NS ns1.citedata.net.citedata.net. NS ns2.citedata.net.citedata.net. A 208.109.30.9citedata.net. MX (10) mail.citedata.net.ftp.citedata.net. CNAME citedata.net.mail.citedata.net. A 208.109.30.9ns1.citedata.net. A 208.109.30.9ns2.citedata.net. A 208.109.30.11srv01.citedata.net. A 208.109.30.9webmail.citedata.net. A 208.109.30.9www.citedata.net. CNAME citedata.net.
On the same VPS I then have the domain name "www.citemedia.ca" registered, and it points to the namesevers "ns1.citedata.net" and "ns2.citedata.net".
The DNS setup in Plesk for this domain looks like this:
PHP Code:
208.109.30.9 / 24 PTR citemedia.ca.citemedia.ca. NS ns1.citedata.net.citemedia.ca. NS ns2.citedata.net.citemedia.ca. A 208.109.30.9citemedia.ca. MX (10) mail.citemedia.ca.ftp.citemedia.ca. CNAME citemedia.ca.lists.citemedia.ca. CNAME citemedia.ca.mail.citemedia.ca. A 208.109.30.9webmail.citemedia.ca. A 208.109.30.9www.citemedia.ca. CNAME citemedia.ca.
However, when I run a DNS report on the domain www.citemedia.ca, I get an error, AND my website is not accessable via. HTTP right now (check it out).
Here is the DNS report: [url]
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what is done wrong with my DNS setup?
also, www.citemedia.ca is using a shared IP address (208.109.30.9).

I have cpanel, centos, whm. Wondering if this will effect down time and such?
I have domain1.com as the main domain that I am using with cpanel and domain2.com as an addon domain that points to a different directory.
I want to move domain1.com to another server and I would like to know if I can make domain2.com the main one
I currently have two sets of nameservers on my box.
ns1.defaultnameservers.com
ns2.defaultnameservers.com
and
ns1.secondnameservers.com
ns2.secondnameservers.com
However when I go to setup a new account in WHM, the nameservers are always set to the default ones.
How can I select the second set of nameservers to be used on a new account?
I have a VPS plan with DirectAdmin and 3 IPs and I wanted to setup private nameservers for two reseller accounts on my plan.
I have the first IP assigned to the server and the other two as the nameservers for my vps.
So with no free IPs, how would I setup private nameservers for my two reseller accounts? Add six IPs (one for each account and two for nameservers for each) or is there a way to use the three I have to setup my resellers?
I know from past experiences, a VPS is not suppose to be setup on a sub domain for the main domain name account. My VPS was setup on a sub domain which is not allowing my domain name to resolve the with the DNS server. How to fix this issue? I have been speaking with support all day, and we have fixed a few minor issues but my major concern is yet to be fixed and I'm still sending support tickets ( and they are working on it ) but it's been an all day afair...any sugestions from the peanut gallery?
View 2 Replies View Relatedhow to buy domains but what is the next step . i heard from my freinds that i we need to setup name servers and some other things before my site goes live,
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a domain name as per my sig. I am also creating a subdomain totally in contrast with that site below. My primary domain has one page on it so i would like to:
a) delete the one page on my primary domain
b) Make the contents of my subdomain my primary domain. e.g my domain is www.info-peep.com, my sub will be example.info-peep.com........i would like to make example.info-peep.com : www.info-peep.com......that make sense, as really the sub will be my main site.
Basically wanting to transfer the contents of my sub to my primary. So when people click info-peep.com, it will be the sub's site. Another thing to note is that i am using RVsitebuilder (WYSIWYG) that my web host provides. Also BEAR IN MIND the WYSIWYG editor does not allow me to move pages (sucks) or to copy the page contents.
I have my main domain (domain.com) and it is where all my sites and customer sites are pointed to (ns1.domain.com and ns2.domain.com).
I just purchased a VPS and have made (domain.com) my main domain as I want it to be because of keeping the nameservers the same for my clients.
My vision is this, I will transfer all the sites from my old cPanel account to my new DirectAdmin account. I have setup a time to let my clients know not to update any content on their sites. At that time I will then download the sites from the cPanel account to the DA account. I will then move my main domain (domain.com) over as well and then change the name server registries at namecheap.
I understand some things can get lost in this switch, but ALL clients are aware of this and understand. They will still have access to the old server via the IP address to check for misdirected mail.
Is this the simplest way to get this done?
Is there a better way, with using the main domain?
When trying to make a subdomain on my main cpanel domain, through cpanel, it acts like it is making it, and adds the dns entry, but it does not work. All other domains work fine.
I submitted a ticket to buycpanel, they asked for the login information this morning, and have not heard back from them. This has happened every since they installed cpanel.
I am hoping its something simple that one of you knowledgeable people may know how to fix.
I currently have a web VPS hosted with FDCServers.net and after 5 days of switching to it i am getting massive HTTP requests. When i login to WHM and hit apache status i have many requests per second by multiple IP's that are going to pages that simple don't exist. Currently my hostname for the server is set at web-01.optical-hosting.com which is what the requests are being sent to. I am also having a DNS issue because when i put http://web-01.optical-hosting.com in the web browser it displays the first account's site under "list accounts" in cpanel. Can someone please help me fix both of these issue's? i will post an apache log in a second post as it is long. Also, these are from overseas. please someone help me with this i have Aim and Msn.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have maindomain.com addon-1.com addon-2.com addon-3.com
The addon domains are folders in main domain's root.
The problem is maindomain's htaccess is affecting the addon domains. I want the add on domains to have their own htaccess. The addon domains should not be influenced by main domain's htaccess
I did some research online and someone says this method works:
Code:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?addon_domain.com
RewriteRule .* - [L]
But the above assumes you only have one addon domain. I have multiple.
Which code is correct? This
Code:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?addon-1.com
RewriteRule .* - [L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?addon-2.com
RewriteRule .* - [L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?addon-3.com
RewriteRule .* - [L]
Or this
Code:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?addon-1.com
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?addon-2.com
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www.)?addon-3.com
RewriteRule .* - [L]
do I put the code at the beginning of main domain's htaccess?
when I try to change main domain, e.g. domain.ru to domain.com, I see that Application Pool changed only for main domain, all additional domain use old Application Pool.
View 1 Replies View RelatedLets say I have abcd.com as the main domain on cpanel. abcd.com has 10 subdomains.
Basically what I want to do is when I do an addon domain or parked domain I want the subdomains to basically point to abcd.com automatically. Let's say the addon/parked
domain is 1234.com
For example I have
sub.abcd.com as the main subdomain
so when I type in sub.1234.com I want it pointed to sub.abcd.com internally meaning the script/files from there however in the browser show as if it were sub.1234.com
Whenever I try to create a user account I get the following error
Sorry, resellers are not permitted to create subdomains of the server's main domain
My server domain is www.domain.com and reseller is trying to create a user account like new.domain.com . It was working fine a few weeks back but I think since I upgraded the cpanel and whm, it doesnt allow creation of accounts anymore.
Could someone help me to fix this error please?
I own the VPS and the reseller and all other accounts.
i have a vps and although i can send mails without problem from my main root account, sending via any of the child accounts created for customers results in their email being picked up as spam (in hotmail at least).
To clarify, mydomain.com is my main name. Email can send without problem,
customersdomain.com, hosted on the same machine, when sending emails they are picked up as spam. The mx dns entries in the zone file are set (by default to) customersdomain.com. and for all the child domains customer1domain.com. etc.
Do i need to ask the datacenter to add a reverse dns entry for mail.mydomain.com?
Is this an issue with the mx records for the hosted domains? Should i change the hosted domaims mx entry on the customers domains to mail.mydomain.com?
I know the ip isnt blacklisted because exactly the same email goes through when sending from the mydomain.com email addresses.
I am using Web admin edition .I need to create two subdomains namely sub1.example.com and sub2.example.com with different IP address. So i need to create two webspaces since a webspace cannot have two domians pointing to two different IP. So now to I can create two webspaces set to different IP. But to create sub1.example.com in one webspace and sub2.example.com in another webspace , i need main domain example.com in both the workspace. But if try to create example.com in second webspace it already exists.Because it exists in another webspace. Actually i dont want to create example.com in both webspace. i need to its subdomain in different webspace.
So one solution is to create example.com and sub1.example.com in one webspace and create another webspace using Adding new webspace and specifying domain name as sub2.example.com. But i don't know does the second subdomain will work properly without creating main domain.
I have a problem with on domain. The domain is the "main-domain" of the customer but it is not shown in the overview /smb/web/view
Not with the User logged in and not with the admin logged in.
But I can change setting, when I call the detail-page manually: /smb/web/overview/id/d:26
I tried to lock/unlock the domain/account, but nothing worked.
I could not see any mistakes in the database.
Deleting and adding the domain would be a trick, but because of having many domains/subdomains and dns-entries this is not my first choice.
