Setting Up New Accounts With Different Set Of Nameservers
May 7, 2008
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?

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?

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 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 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've got a situation in which I need to have a set of mail accounts that share a domain name with a domain that's already in use as a domain alias and because the domain is already in use, I'm unable to create a new account using that domain. I tried explicitly adding "www" to the domain alias so I could keep the www.domain.com address as an alias and reserve the "domain.com" name for use as a separate account, but Plesk won't allow for that.
How to address this? The idea I'm currently considering is to delete the domain alias and then create the new account and manually set the DOCUMENT ROOT of the new account to refer to the other domain's document root. I'm sure this could create some difficulty in Plesk so I'm looking for input before trying it. I'm actually not even sure exactly where I would be able to redefine the document root with Plesk allowing the change and not overwriting it later.
If all else fails, I can setup a new account on a different and unrelated Plesk server, but I'd prefer not to do that.

I have a dedicated server, and WHM cPanel
I have a registered domain with oneandone (mydomain)
So what I want is nameservers, ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com when people are viewing any of the sites on my server.
Basically i need to know, step by step on how to, do this, please I have read all the guides but they dont say exactly how oneandone point to my server, I think I have done most stuff on the server side.
So I want a site mydomain2.com they can change their nameservers to ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com and it links to my server.
I think i have only 1 IP with my dediated server.

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.

We have about 3 resellers on one server and all of a sudden, when I log in to whm and click "Show Reseller Accounts", all accounts show under root.. What's even strager, is that under package colum, it says "undefined"
However, when I click "list accounts", all accounts show and they are properly setup up with the correct package and owner (not all root.. They also show to which reseller they belong).
how to fix the problem when I click "Show Reseller Accounts"?

Will domains still function if they have differing nameservers at the registry from what they do on the server side? i.e. domain1.com pointing to ns1/2.example.com at the registry but on the server the DNS zone has it as ns1/2.example2.com, baring in mind both sets of nameservers are pointing at the same server.

I have purchased a reseller account from www.reseller.net (not real names) They provide me with ns1.reseller.net and ns2.reseller.net, as well as the two associated ip addresses. They tell me to use these 2 ip addresses to set up my own custom nameservers.
I want my own nameservers - ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com. Tech support at www.reseller.net tells me thay cannot help me. They tell me to go to the company where I purchased and manage the domain name www.mydomain.com.
I do, and find the control panel page where I -CREATE NAME SERVER-. This I do, and I use the above mentioned ip addresses. This seems to work. When I go back to this control panel page the next day, the entries I made are still there. Yet, I cannot "ping" my nameservers.
Now what? I have tried "google-ing" and not being a super-tech, I get lost. It appears that I must make some changes in my WHM, (I have a WHM...), but I have no access to any "Server" settings.
I have another reseller account with a totally different company, and when I asked them to set up custom nameservers, they just "did it" for me. Again, the hosting company was not related to the domain registering company.

I am experimenting with setting up my first unmanaged dedicated server.
I have directadmin as a cp.
I have 5 separate IP's available to me.
I went to my domain registrar and set up host as ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com using my first two IP's that are available.
My question now is what is the best way to use my three remaining IP's? Do I set them up as completely different domain nameservers ie. ns1.otherdomain.com etc.? Out of those three, I thought you need two IP's per nameserver domain? Is that wrong thinking?
I don't want any relationship shown in a whois dns info between the ips.

I just have a question on setting up Nameservers in WHM. Is it necessary to add an "A" entry to the name servers, and if so, do I need to do so on both nameservers, or just the first one?
ns1.mysite.com
ns2.mysite.com
What's the reason/ necessarily for adding a A entry to a nameserver, and can it be skipped?

I have a domain at Enom and I have a use for it which would require it being assigned an IP address rather than nameservers in order to reach the server it would be hosted on - I have 2 questions please:-
Would doing it this way bring any penalties in search engine ranking, PR or any other problems?
How would it best be done at Enom?

i have started moving domains from Cpanel/whm server to my HSphere server that uses a new nameserver, but have come up against problem with the new NameServer.
When moving .biz .info i get error about nameserver not being resgistered, after doing some seaching it appears that some domain resgistrars (in this case 123reg) are starting to enforce a security feature whereby All registrars need the name server registered before you can point any domain name to the name server.
Diggin further i found this at stargate.com which where i have my HSphere service domain:
1.
Registering a Child Name Server as mentioned above is just the first step. The Child Name Server needs to be registered at the Registry to only serve as a non-authoritative Record should your Child Name Server not be resolvable in some extreme condition.
This Name Server would start working only after you have added an Address (A) Record or Canonical (CNAME) Record for this Name Server within the Zone for the domain name (of this Child Name Server) at your own DNS Server, thus binding the NS to the IP Address.
Examples
i. If you are running your own DNS Servers then you would need to add a Zone for the domain name your-domain-name.com and create an A Record like
ns1.your-domain-name.com. 38400 IN A 111.222.333.444
ii. If you wish to simply point your Name Servers to another Name Servers, you may add a CNAME Record to those (while ensuring that those Name Servers have an A Record within the Zone created for your Name Servers as well).
ns1.your-domain-name.com. 38400 IN CNAME ns1.service-provider.com
Also at ns1.service-provider.com there should be an Zone for your-domain-name.com with an A Record for ns1.your-domain-name.com, making it authoritative for resolving your-domain-name.com.
In most cases your ISP would have already created the above for you and you need not bother about the same.
My service domain, and one i am using for nameservers, HSphere dns settings looks like
Name TTL Class Type Data Action
cp.mydomain.net 86400 IN A 85.264.15.83 Click to delete
ns1.mydomain.net 86400 IN A 85.264.15.84 Click to delete
ns2.mydomain.net 86400 IN A 85.264.15.85 Click to delete
web.mydomain.net 86400 IN A 85.264.15.86 Click to delete
mail.mydomain.net 86400 IN A 85.264.15.87 Click to delete
mysql.mydomain.net 86400 IN A 85.264.15.88 Click to delete
So from what i tell i have furfilled critria?
I have to say i am a little confused over this!
I am thinking that maybe i have to make some changes at stargate.com or maybe get my co-lo provider to make changes?

I have created 2 nameservers and assigned unique IPs to them and I have my domain dhingana.org using them. Everything was fine until today when suddenly I cannot reach dhingana.org.
I restarted BIND, Apache and even my server but still the same issue. I checked that Apache is still running.
My DNS reports for dhingana.org says:
A timeout occurred getting the NS records from your nameservers! None of your nameservers responded fast enough. They are probably down or unreachable. I can't continue since your nameservers aren't responding. If you have a Watchguard Firebox, it's due to a bug in their DNS Proxy, which must be disabled (31 Jul 2006 UPDATE: several years after being informed of this, there is a rumor that there is a fix that allows the Watchguard DNS proxy to work).

I have a question on how to set up (clone) two nameservers.
I have two VPS' with two IPs that are totaly independent of each other. Both running ispCP with Apache2, mail, ftp, mysql, AND bind9 as DNS managment.
So. I want these two server to be as independent as they are, BUT they should share NameServers with each other.
Something like this:
host1:
ns1.domain.com = host1
ns2.domain.com = host2
host2:
ns1.domain.com = host1 (or host2?? = inverted)
ns2.domain.com = host2 (or host1?? = inverted)
A lot of domains are running more then one NameServer, but I could not find any tutorial on how to "clone" the NS from one to an other. Is it enough to just add some kind of "transfer to IP setting" in bind, or do I have to have scripts that download settings and files from one server to an other regularly?
