I have a Question Regarding nameserver Setup.The VPS has HyperVM + LxAdmin as control panel.I have configured and Update all software packages via ssh. now Http server + mysql is running.
I have 4 IP address, lets assume them as IP1,IP2,IP3,IP4 for simplicity.
IP1 is set Main Ipaddress in hypervm panel.
Then I has setup A records - NS1,NS2 pointing to IP3,IP4 respectively from my domain registrar's control panel.
What else needs to be done before start hosting websites?
I have learnt it is harder to setup than I initially expected (since I have just moved from a shared hosting service). I am in need of some help setting up my DNS servers, as I am very confused. Here is most of the info I know:
1) I am running HyperVM
2) I've installed LXAdmin
3) I own the domain (purchased from xeodomains.com) runemart.com
4) My VPS hostname is: vps.runemart.com
5) I know my IP
6) My host has said:
'For VPS customers that have a HyperVM login you can now host forward DNS on the DNS servers rdns1.vaserv.com (US)rdns2.vaserv.com (UK'
And I am unsure what this means/how to do it.
I am not sure if I need some more information to set up my DNS, however I am sure that I can get it if I do.
Now, my questions begin. Firstly, I need to point my domain - runemart.com - somewhere. I believe I need to set up my DNS via HyperVM or LXAdmin so that they are something like: ns1.runemart.com and ns2.runemart.com. Though, is this correct? Am I able to set up my own actual domain name servers, or will my domain have to point at something like rdns2.vaserv.com?
If anyone can assist me in this I would be very greatful, as I am waiting to get my website running. This is all I will ask for now, I will take it one step at a time =).
how do you setup LxAdmin/VPS's once HyperVM OpenVZ is installed..I got it installed from the server company, and want to know how to license HyperVM's.
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.
As my clients' needs expand, they're asking for chroot ssh/sftp setup. I'm currently on a dedicated Linux setup but don't really have the time to set up a whole new box with full virtualization or investigate a full chroot solution (baby on the way), and to be honest it would be less hassle to move to a new provider than worry about down time with sites.
What I'm looking for:
- linux hosting - hosting for 30+ accounts, some with several domains - at least 6 IP addresses for SSL certs - each account in a full chroot environment (ssh/sftp/ftp) so they can't poke around each others' files, or each account set up in a virtual machine setup (ie: openvz) - maildir - spamassassin - php 5, mysql, perl 5.8.8 - suexec apache would be nice
I currently have vps with Hypervm and I was wondering how do I add additional ip's from the ip pool? I do not see the ip pool in my administration panel. Would it be under the server pool? My provider allocates ips to the ip pool but I do not know how to add them myself.
I am trying to create some vps using openvz but after creating the vps with the Centos basic template 304mb i can't ping the ip and i can't view the centos welcome page in my browser (using ip and not domain, so i don't need to change there anything yet) and the most important is that i can't connect to the vps using ssh
I aks for many good users about my problem but i don' found a solution yet.
I ask my DC about ip's and they told me that the ip's are routed in my server.
When you're creating VPS container, you can ssh with that IP and login with your username and password correct? But, what is the problem when I successfully created a VPS, and when trying ssh into it, I can't. Ok, here we go. I want to create a 2nd vps and will be using it as my DNS server. I enter a set of IPs into HyperVM's IPpool. First IP: x.x.x.178 Last IP: x.x.x.182 Resolv Entries (space Separated) : Gateway (IP): x.x.x.x.177 NetMask: 255.255.255.248
Then I created a vps resource plan. And then I created a VPS and it use the first IP from above. I want to connect to SSH and want to make it as my DNS server but seems the IP are not responding, it wasn't even live. So, what is the problem here? Where I did wrong? Just to let you know, I successfully created 1 VPS before that and it works without any hiccups. Got even whm/cpanel installed as well on it. The thing that I suspected is that my DC pulled the IPs off me and assigned them to other server. Waiting for their reply on this though.
because Virtuozzo is charged, i think it may more easy to manage for admin and user, xen has it's own feature than Virtuozzo,but i feel hypervm is not very friendly to use ( my personal feeling)
I would like to know which clients would prefer Virtuozzo over HyperVM. Lets say there is a company offering Virtuozzo on there servers. However, there is another company offering HyperVM for a cheaper price. Neither companies are overselling. Would you be willing to pay the extra money for Virtuozzo? Or would you be happy with OpenVZ and HyperVM.
i've created VPS with OpenVZ.And there is some problem i have access the vps and it's show some error
Code: VM creation has failed. Reason: Private area already exists in /vz/private/250 .At the moment i forgot my SSH details..only i know my hypervm "root" details..where i log with admin password.I need to fix this because some clients of my hosting company is waiting and my number of VPS is limited.
I just ordered a VPS at connectswitch and now I can login into HyperVM but, at the homepage of the VPS server there is the following error:
The VM () Doesn't Exist on localhost. If you have migrated the vps, you can manually change the server in the database using the below, Or restore from backup.
As well all know there has been a hypervm exploit which may have taken down fsckvps and other hosts have been having attacks. If possible install any program that will warn you of a connection to your server and or provide input on what it may or may not be.
I myself Just had a blank php format file uploaded to a clients vps and It tried accessing other vps servers. As far as I know the ip was rapidly changing and untraceable (this may or may not be from the exploit), If anyone else is having hypervm attacks or server attacks please post here so instead of working within our own company's we are working as a group of over 10 thousand+ wht members to solve this issue ourselves.
When I try to add my ip it show error that the ip is already exist now I can not buy additional license. I submit ticket to lxlabs but no reply, If I change main Ip then it will make any difference to other VMs?
