Apache Overloading Due To Requests To My Main Domain Name Server (DNS) Name
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.

Account Suspended Due To Server Overloading - Unknown Ip Causing This Issue
My host has suspended saying my server was overloaded and sent me a log to my mail and i don't have access to cpanel also. I just have a wordpress blog and when i had contacted host through chat they told some ip might be causing this issue so ban that ip when ur account is unsuspended. But i am really unaware of how to find which ip is causing this issue as i have little knowledge on analysing logs. Any help regarding this is highly appreciated and please leave your suggestions for me. I am pasting the logs that were sent by host to me in mail: Srv PID Acc M CPU SS Req Conn Child Slot Host VHost Request 0-5 22363 32/49/49 K 5.76 2 1695 583.9 0.82 0.82 76.227.169.69 GET /index.php/181/ HTTP/1.1 1-5 22365 81/81/81 W 42.69 3 0 3060.8 2.99 2.99 76.183.97.67 GET /index.php/181/ HTTP/1.1 2-5 22367 87/87/87 K 45.81 2 991 3287.3 3.21 3.21 76.183.97.67 GET /index.php/181/ HTTP/1.1 3-5 22369 2/41/41 K 2.07 8 0 15.3 0.12 0.12 67.87.117.129 GET /wp-content/plugins/postratings/images/stars/rating_half.gi 6-5 22387 0/13/13 W 2.21 57 0 0.0 0.12 0.12 81.22.20.143 GET /index.php/181/ HTTP/1.1 7-5 22388 76/76/76 W 39.94 0 0 2871.9 2.80 2.80 141.153.137.168 GET /index.php/181/ HTTP/1.1 8-5 22396 0/26/26 W 2.46 38 0 0.0 0.34 0.34 127.0.0.1 care.com GET /whm-server-status HTTP/1.0 13-5 22413 0/18/18 W 1.46 44 0 0.0 0.33 0.33 81.22.20.143 GET /index.php/181/ HTTP/1.1 14-5 22414 0/25/25 _ 0.76 55 672 0.0 0.28 0.28 71.77.3.233 GET /wp-content/uploads/2007/12/cup.jpg HTTP/1.1 20-5 22464 2/14/14 K 0.66 8 0 52.5 0.14 0.14 67.87.117.129 GET /wp-content/plugins/postratings/images/loading.gif HTTP/1.1 21-5 22484 0/6/6 _ 1.31 40 329 0.0 0.03 0.03 74.77.10.155 -care.com GET /~realrina/nun.jpg HTTP/1.1 22-5 22510 27/37/37 K 18.07 0 1832 982.5 1.25 1.25 80.195.137.10 GET /index.php/181/ HTTP/1.1 23-5 22523 8/34/34 K 1.76 8 0 94.6 0.30 0.30 67.87.117.129 GET /wp-content/plugins/postratings/images/stars/rating_on.gif 27-5 22540 0/10/10 _ 3.36 39 167 0.0 0.19 0.19 90.192.174.63 GET /wp-content/uploads/2007/10/anand.jpg HTTP/1.1 28-5 22542 1/14/14 K 1.76 8 823 151.9 0.23 0.23 67.87.117.129 GET /wp-content/themes/ProSense%20Redux/images/picture.jpg HTTP 29-5 23481 0/6/14 _ 0.37 11 2803 0.0 0.11 0.12 82.37.128.175 radio.audio-perfection.co.uk GET /img/player.png HTTP/1.1 30-5 22584 32/44/44 K 15.47 0 1284 989.6 1.06 1.06 80.195.137.10 GET /index.php/181/ HTTP/1.1 31-5 22588 22/25/25 K 5.77 0 751 468.0 0.46 0.46 76.227.169.69 GET /index.php/181/ HTTP/1.1 32-5 23520 0/5/8 _ 0.20 19 414 0.0 0.05 0.09 72.95.237.89 pown.us GET /images/files/36.jpg HTTP/1.1 33-5 23627 1/6/22 K 0.06 3 967 28.0 0.06 0.35 66.249.65.196 GET /index.php/category/telugu-online-movies/page/4/ HTTP/1.1 36-5 23637 2/3/6 K 0.00 3 37 0.0 0.000 0.03 83.181.190.92 akirad.net GET /files/color/garland-9bf1a50e/menu-expanded.gif HTTP/1.1 37-5 23673 8/9/16 K 0.49 8 0 126.9 0.20 0.21 67.87.117.129 GET /wp-content/uploads/2007/12/movie_dus_kahaniyaan.jpg HTTP/1 38-5 23674 1/3/10 K 0.00 11 1536 23.0 0.06 0.15 84.57.59.109 teeth-whitening-kit.com GET /affiliate/scripts/sb.php?a_aid=17&a_bid=7 HTTP/1.1 39-5 23690 10/10/22 K 0.99 3 0 35.6 0.03 0.29 83.181.190.92 akirad.net GET /files/color/garland-9bf1a50e/bg-tab.png HTTP/1.1 40-5 23693 0/5/10 _ 0.00 44 1106 0.0 0.04 0.07 67.11.157.83 teeth-whitening-kit.com GET /affiliate/scripts/sb 44-5 23721 1/3/6 K 0.00 8 0 0.4 0.000 0.00 67.87.117.129 GET /wp-content/plugins/share-this/share-icon-16x16.gif HTTP/1. 45-5 - 0/0/3 . 0.00 39 1 0.0 0.00 0.00 83.181.190.92 akirad.net GET /files/color/garland-9bf1a50e/menu-expanded.gif HTTP/1.1 46-5 - 0/0/5 . 0.22 22 1332 0.0 0.00 0.04 81.22.20.143 GET /index.php/181/ HTTP/1.1 47-5 22780 51/52/52 K 26.66 0 940 1927.2 1.88 1.88 76.183.97.67 GET /index.php/181/ HTTP/1.1 48-5 - 0/0/3 . 0.00 37 6786 0.0 0.00 0.02 81.22.20.143 GET /index.php/181/ HTTP/1.1 51-5 - 0/0/13 . 0.26 35 34109 0.0 0.00 0.06 71.77.3.233 GET /favicon.ico HTTP/1.1 54-5 23746 2/3/3 K 0.51 3 0 0.0 0.02 0.02 83.181.190.92 akirad.net GET /files/color/garland-9bf1a50e/menu-leaf.gif HTTP/1.1 55-5 23747 0/0/0 W 0.00 20 706795599 0.0 0.00 0.00 81.22.20.143 GET /index.php/181/ HTTP/1.1 56-5 - 0/0/3 . 0.00 16 4868 0.0 0.00 0.00 66.7.206.192 care.com GET /serverstats_inc.php HTTP/1.0 57-5 - 0/0/5 . 0.09 44 0 0.0 0.00 0.01 195.13.38.198 (unavailable) POST /users_adm/start1.php HTTP/1.1 58-5 - 0/0/1 . 0.00 24 1640 0.0 0.00 0.02 81.22.20.143 GET /index.php/181/ HTTP/1.1 61-5 - 0/0/2 . 0.07 12 10194 0.0 0.00 0.01 172.188.47.93 radio.audio-perfection.co.uk GET /play_wmp.php HTTP/1.1

Too Many DNS (Domain Name Server) Requests. How To Make It Lower ?
I host my DNS with DNSmadeeasy.com , I noticed that I have daily more than 350.000 DNS requests for main domain, This domains got about 80.000 uniqes/day, so this is strange how can there be 350.000 DNS requests/day. Seems that I'll go over the quota because of this. The TTL for all domains is set to 86400. Is there a way to discover how its possible ? And also is there a way to do something to make this number lower (DNS requests)

Moving Main Domain To Another Server
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?

Rapid Site Deployment (database Driven Domain Name Server (DNS) + Apache Config)
I am trying to do something that I believe is fairly non-standard. What I am looking to do is create a system where I can rapidly deploy web sites without having to restart named and Apache. For example, if a customer completes a process, I want to be able to turn that site on immediately using a temporary domain (somecompany.example.com or othercompany.example.com). With some programming language (hopefully PHP) I would like to get the customer up and running with their site immediately without having to restart the server. While doing some research I found I could use MyDNS which uses MySQL to manage DNS data instead of configuration files. MyDNS can be updated on the fly. For Apache I have seen wildcard configurations, but everyone seems to be suggesting the use of mod rewrite. I would prefer that the domain maps directly to a specific folder: somecompany.example.com -> /sites/somecompany/htdocs (*.example.com -> /sites/*/htdocs) Does anyone know how I might do this with Apache. It seems similar to user directories (example.com/~username -> /home/*/htdocs)

LXadmin Main Server - Best Way To Get My Secondary DNS Updated
Just moved to a lxadmin based system from my current plesk system and I have a dilema Configuration Server 1: Main Web/CP/Primary DNS/Mail/etc Server 2: Secondary DNS/Backup Mail forwarding With Plesk I generated a transfer file from named.conf (plesk runs bind/named for dns) sent that over to server 2 a couple of times a day. Problem is I've converted lxadmin to run with bind instead and named.conf only contains an include to lxadmin.named.conf and this is empty. So where does lxadmin put its conf files for named? I'm not restricted to using named, I'd use djbdns if there was an equally simple way of transferring the zones across to server 2

Apache Down With 503 Error / Http Requests Get Redirected / Is Server Hacked
My Linux Server's Http Daemon (Apache) would stop serving websites ever so often, as soon as apache is restarted the error fixes iteself only to resurface within few hours. The apache process would still be running i.e. apache does not die but no websites hosted on my server would be accessible from browser. And when this happens the apache logs do not log any http requests. Instead when this happens all http requests to my server would be redirected to some weird Trojan website and my Norton Antivirus would show an Alert/Warning, for example; "Browser exploit at www.xxx.xxx was blocked" Risk Name: MSIE WebViewFolderIcon ActiveX Control BO or another error like; "Auto-Protect has detected Trojan.Fakeavalert". At first i thought the problem could be with my Laptop/ISP so i logged on to the server via SSH and opened try to open a website using command line "lynx mywebsite.com" and it shows following error; "Alert!: HTTP/1.0 503 Service Unavailable". Now if i assume my laptop were to be infected, then as soon as i restart my apache and visit mywebsite.com eveything returns to normal with no such warnings. Why do i see those norton error messages only when apache is down with 503, and when apache is down with 503 how come the http requests always get redirected to some suspicious websites and nothing gets logged in apache error log? I think my server is being attacked causing http to get unresponsive and thereafter http requests to my server are redirected to some malicious website, is this correct? Also, i suspect this is a php script exploit as some customers have reported that google have blocked their website due to security reasons, i found <iframe> tage inserted in some php pages which i fixed. Also, another thinh i noticed; when apache responds with the 503 it is referencing PHP 5.1.4 in the header response: [root@]# curl -I xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (my server ip) HTTP/1.0 503 Service Unavailable Server: Apache X-Powered-By: PHP/5.1.4 Retry-After: 20 I am running PHP 4.3.9m why does apache responds with PHP 5.1.4 when this 503 error surfaces? Also, since my apache was dowan with 503 error a customer mailed in today saying; "It seems that my site www.xxxx.com is regularly down, and the winlogon virus is involved." I suspect this is again due to the fact that http requests start getting redirected?

# Of Apache Requests - Modify
I have a dedicated box with softlayer and I have noticed at varying times the past few months that with sites we host, sometimes the connection times out (I'll try to access like 5 or 6 sites within 30 seconds or so and they all drop, then a minute later they load fine). I opened a support ticket and they said it usually has to do with the # of requests Apache can handle, and that this can be modified. They stated they could: "tweak the apache configuration file in this server that can make it possible to handle more requests." So my question is what should the # of requests be set to? (I'm not sure what it is now, but I assume whatever the default # is).

Host Will Only Update Domain Name Server (DNS) In Batches, Takes Several Hours For A DNS Change, Normal?
Host will only update DNS in batches, takes several hours for a DNS change, is that normal? Well today my mail stopped working and it turns out the A record for mail was deleted. How it got deleted I don't know. I called my host and after speaking to 2 techs, they said that have added my request to a batch, and that would update in a few hours. I said to him, batch? What can't you do it instantly? He said thats not the way their DNS works and any DNS change would affect thousands of other sites they are hosting. Does anyone know what kind of dns system these people could possibly have where they can not reload a single zone? And by affected, I think he means the sites will go down for a minute or so, while it relaods every zone. Is this really the case, or are these people just idiots?

Setting Up A Main Domain And Nameservers
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?

Subdomain To Main Domain Moving
I 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.

Reverse Domain Name Server (DNS) ARPA For Domain On VPS
I have a vps with dedicated ip's for my domain names. I read that in order for mails coming from my server not be picked up as spam, i need to add reverse ip entries. Now i have already added the glue nameserver records on my godaddy control panel, ns1.mydomain.com -> 10.20.30.40 ns2.mydomain.com -> 10.20.30.41 But do i need to speak to the datacenter to add the reverse dns entries for my domain on their nameservers? What about if i host my nameservers offsite, but then have my webserver/mailserver etc inside the datacenter? Would i need to request the datacenter where the nameservers are hosted to add the reverse ip entries for the domain, and then the request the same from the datacenter for my web/mail servers to add the reverse entries? Is it really required?

Apache Hangs When Having Lots Of ..reading.. Requests
A weird thing happents once on few days on my server, and it's not a regular thing or on exact time. When I have this problem no page can be loaded in the browser, but WHM is working, i think because it's accessed by IP . In apache status page I can see lots of ..reading.. requests which are there even for 10 - 20 seconds sometimes. Usualy the server has 10 - 20 requests/s : CPU Usage: u35146 s2297.05 cu2.74 cs4.5 - 6.97% CPU load 11.2 requests/sec - 83.0 kB/second - 7.4 kB/request 10 requests currently being processed, 8 idle servers But when the ..reading.. requests appear it goes much higher like 100 to 200 11.5 requests/sec - 85.3 kB/second - 7.5 kB/request 200 requests currently being processed, 0 idle servers after 3 minutes : 160 requests currently being processed, 30 idle servers When I logged on to SSH I saw that there are ~150 conection from a single IP .

Domain Parking - Wildcard Domain Name Server (DNS)?
We have a lot of unused domains that we'd like to setup domain parking for. To keep it simple, we'd like to just change the namesevers to ns1.domainparking.com and ns2.domainparking.com (not real nameservers!) and the domains would then automatically show a simple web page. We use cpanel servers and are wondering how easy this is to do? I've seem mention of wildcard dns? Is that the answer?

Cpanel Main Domain Not Allowing Subdomains
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.

Server Overloading
My server has been running slow for a while now but I was out of twon so I was not able to check on it. I just got back and find that the server load is above 4.50 for a dual cpu server with 2GB ram. I have looked and all I can see is that there are a few sites using a good amount of resources. However, on my other server, I have sites that are even more busy then the ones on the server that is overloading. I cannot seem to find what is going on or what to do about it. Please help me. The sites are moving at a snails pace.

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

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.

Cpanel Domain Name Server (DNS) Setting For Email On 2 Seperate Server
This is the scenario, domain.com are setup on server1, however server2 also has the same profile of domain.com as we use ns3 and ns4 using domain.com. This works fine with the nameserver setup on server2. However I encounter problems as the emails from server2 won't reach server1 as there are duplicate profile on server2. My question is how do I setup the DNS in cpanel/whm from server2 so the emails from server2 will reach server1? Server1 (www.domain.com) ns1.domain.com ns2.domain.com Server2 ns3.domain.com ns4.domain.com

Apache Server And No-ip.com Free Dns
ive created myself a little test site and i mananged to host it with a server thats sitting behind a nat router by forwarding port 80 to it, this site can be accessed from outside my home network by entering the ip address of my router into internet explorer. then i create myself a free host at no-ip.com and i used the .servegame.com option so its MySite.servegame.com. it succesfully resolves to my ip becuese when i ping it from the wndows command line it pings the IP of my router. but for some reason it cant be used to acces my site through a web browser. the only thing i can think of is that it has somehhing to do with the "domain name" and "server name" fields that you have to fill in while installing apache although no matter what i put into those fields i can stil access my site using my routers IP.

Domain Name Server DNS Pointing
Hello all, hope someone can help. I have a domain incl. hosting (fanferwalde.com) and three extra domain names, fanferwalde.nl , fanfalingasate.com , fanfalingasate.nl (all three without hosting) who I want to point to fanferwalde.com. Before I bought the extra domains I asked the provider if I could point the extra domains to the “head” domain (fanferwalde.com). Yes, that was possible they said so I bought the extra domains. I asked the provider to help with the configuration to point them to the head domain but they refused, I must do it by myself…………………….. There is no possibility they do it when I pay extra for it so I feel pressed to take also a hosting for the extra domains; then I can make a redirect on each index page. All domain names have an own DNS control panel. I have full access to this. The first picture is the DNS from the head domain. The second picture is the DNS from one of the extra domains I want to point to the head domain. What must I put where so the website from fanferwalde.com will appear when I write fanferwalde.nl in the browser? THANKS in advance!!! (Sorry for my bad English, I’m Dutch)

Domain Name Server DNS Cluster
I´m running 4 servers on a cpanel - dns - cluster. - 1 running cpanel (srv01) - 3 running cpanel-dns-only (cluster01 - cluster03) My DNS config is: srv01 - dns1.domain.com cluster01 - dns2.domain.com I ´ve setup on srv01: - cluster01 (synchronize changes) - cluster02 (standalone) - cluster03 (standalone) On cluster01: - srv01 (synchronize changes) - cluster02 (standalone) - cluster03 (standalone) And on cluster02 and cluster03, I did something like that: - srv01 (synchronize changes) - cluster01 (synchronize changes) - cluster03 (standalone) And - srv01 (synchronize changes) - cluster01 (synchronize changes) - cluster02 (standalone) 1. So, is that correct? 2. It seems that when I click on 'syncronize all DNS records on all the servers' only cluster01 and srv01 got all the DNS records. So is it normal? Yet If I add a domain on cluster02 for example, where I need to add the DNS? cluster02 named.conf or on cluster01/srv01?

Domain Name Server (DNS) Changes With Subdomains
I currently have shared hosting, but am getting VPS with another company. I'd like to keep my domains on my original hosting and direct the domains to the new server. I've been reading and it doesn't seem that hard to change for a regular domain. The problem is I don't seem to understand how to do the same for a subdomain. I keep reading about the A record and CNAME, but just don't get it. Does anyone have any experience with this. Do I just put the IP address for the new server in the A record? I just want to make sure I know what's going on before I order my new hosting and find out it's not possible or something. I'm also curious if mail, like myname@mydomain.com will continue to work. Or is there something I need to change for this as well.

CPanel Domain Name Server (DNS)
After spending 1 hour wondering why all domains suddenly stopped working and the hosting server was showing no signs of fail. A simple dns service restart on my secondary dns server fixed this. Is there any way to auto restart the dns service upon failure on the cpanel dns only build? Also why would the secondary dns server failing, cause the domain to stop working. The primary dns/hosting server was fine.

Domain Name Server (DNS) Mixup
I am currently a hosting reseller. I moved all of my 44 accounts to a new reseller host, and I pointed my custom nameservers to the new host's IP's today. MAJOR PROBLEM - When you type in my domain of www(dot)shoppepro(dot)com, you see one of my customer's websites www(dot)alltiedupbowtique(dot)com!!!! My website should look like this: http : / / 74.86.84.168 / Besides that, 40 of my 44 accounts are down completely. I've opened a ticket at my reseller but no one is getting back to me. This is very embarrassing. I use cPanel/WHM. Can anyone offer a possible solution?

Domain Name Server (DNS)service?
Right now I've got some users with their own domains. If I ever want to switch hosts, they'll have to switch their DNS around themselves. I'd prefer to pay for a host-independent DNS so they'll never need to touch their DNS again. Is such a thing available?

Running Your Own Domain Name Server (DNS)
1) What does it take to run your own DNS server? 2) How to determine server specs? 3) Where to locate? 4) Do you need multiple server? 5) How do you manage DNS entries on the server? 6) Is there commercial software to do this? I've heard of PowerDNS. Where can I get more information on this subject?

Have I Got BIND Domain Name Server (DNS) Right?
Ive been learning alot about BIND and DNS, id like someone to check over what ive learn't to make sure my knowledge is correct. A Zone: A zone is basically 'similar' to a sub-domain but the domain google.com would not be a sub-domain, so a zone is not a sub-domain. In the domain google.com 'google' would be a deligated zone from the TLD 'com'. In another example: ny.google.com , 'ny' would be a zone for google's 'new york' department, if they had one. Hosts: The host name is usually the most left word in a domain or you can look at it as the leaves on an inverted tree in the DNS System. Examples: www.google.com = 'www' would be the host mail.sitepoint.com = 'mail' would be the host ny.google.com = 'ny' would NOT be a host because its a 'zone' and does not offer a 'service' like ftp, mail, www ect. would. Unless 'ny' was intended to be a service then it would be a host, but it would have to become a leaf in the inverted tree, so you wouldn't ba able to create any zones from it like 'mail.ny.google.com' ... if that makes sense. Nameservers: If i used BIND on my server to manage my Zones and DNS information (which is pretty much standard), that would be my Nameserver. Its job would be to convert human recognizable names into computer recognizable names/numbers/ip. My nameserver would only have authority over zones that are not deligated. So an example, 'com' deligate 'mydomainname' to me (mydomainname.com) they have no authority over that zone. So if i set up a nameserver on mydomain.com they have no authority over mydomainname or any zone under that. Domain Namespace The Domain Namespace was setup to replace the method used by ARPA (later DARPA) in the 60's in an effort to create a database of hosts that were easy to administer and reduced the time and server load on the old skool HOSTS.TXT method. A domain namespace is a way to identify the different domains. Im not to good at explaining what i mean but basically ill illustrate this example: google.com and google.net both have the same names, so the namespace in this example would the the TLD's 'net' and 'com' to seperate them. Go a bit deeper for example: cd.music.com and cd.disk.com , both have the same TLD and sub-domain's so the namespace here is the first-level domain 'music' and 'disk'. Sub-Domains Sub-Domains are similar to zones, in a way. A domain name: 'google.com' might have the sub-domain 'video.google.com' which links to the video section of google. 'video' is not a deligated zone from 'google' neither is it a host as such, so its a sub-domain. Im probably slightly confused on some parts, and im open for comments. I dont fully understand alot of it, but what ive learnt so far took a good day to get my head around. If anythings wrong, id like to know.

Domain Name Server (DNS) Needed
I need 2 dedicated DNS servers. I'd like one server on the east coast and one on the west or close to it. They will be used for primary ans secondary dns only. Simply running Bind and webmin. I need cheap servers since they are pushing dns data around. Not very bandwidth intensive or cpu resource intensive. The most important thing is that the backbone redundancy is amazing. You can get a good server at a lot of place these day, but who has the staff and backbone to make sure these servers are not bottlenecked and up and running.

Confused About Domain Name Server (DNS)
My domain registrar does not have the facility to create nameservers which means I can't create my own DNS for my websites. I wanted to create ns1.smsmasters.co.uk and ns2.smsmasters.co.uk as my DNS. Does 123-reg allow you to setup your own nameservers and assign an ip? I'm really confused as to what to do. In the past I used my host's DNS.

Moving Domain Name Server (DNS) ...
I'm trying to move sites from one cPanel server to another. Presently, I am using the clustered DNS option in WHM to keep the two servers DNS in sync, which has allowed me to avoid messing with switching name servers for domains as I moved them. Now, I'm looking to turn off the original server, but that server is the one hosting the name servers that most of the domains use (ns1 and ns2.serverforest.com). I'd like to move those name servers over to the new server, which I presume is as simple as re-registering them in the control panel over at my registrar. However, I presume I also need to bind IPs on the new server to the original DNS names. However, if I do that and the DNS cluster syncing occurs, won't that mess things up while I await the registrar making the changes? Do I need to turn off clustering before making the switch? Is there a way to do this seamlessly? Also, for testing purposes I created ns3 and ns4.serverforest.com on the new server. If I now want to move over ns1 and ns2, can I set them on the same two IPs that ns3 and ns4 "own" without any trouble?

I am having a slight email issue after moving my DNS to DNS Made Easy. On my wordpress blog I have it set to email me comments which the blog does just fine but ever since the DNS change I am having a weird issue. I use gmail for my email which threads emails.

Managed Domain Name Server (DNS) ...
So i am planning to move my clients from one server to another and the problem is i want to minimize downtime or have absolutely no downtime. On top of all of this, i plan on moving the server again as i get more money to do it. Anyways, here is the current situation.... mydomain.com has the following nameservers ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com My clients are also using ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com I wanted to move my DNS to a managed DNS solution somewhere else and then do the change of servers. Would this be the right way to go about things? Or am i forgetting something? Would it be frowned upon the the hosting industry to have my DNS hosted somewhere else? And last, if i do what im trying to do, how do i do it? lol. I need to keep ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com still active.
