Setting Up Custom Nameserver For Reseller
Mar 7, 2008I just got a dedicated box and I am making reseller accounts.
How can I set it up where it is set to ns1.theirdomain.com instead of ns1.mydomain.com

Custom Nameserver
Jan 8, 2007I recently signed up for hosting with ASO on a shared hosting plan with intentions to operate an SMF forum. Prior to going live, I would like to prepare for a possible upgrade to a VPS in the near future if the forum exceeds allowed resources on the shared platform, specifically the MySQL connections which appears to be set at 40. I am currently utilizing the ASO nameservers and was wondering the following:
If I setup custom nameservers at Namecheap and request likewise from ASO, when it comes time to switching to a VPS, can I perform the following and anticipate downtime only during steps 2 & 3?
1) Configure the VPS (including DNS)
2) Switch forum to maintenance mode and transfer data to VPS
3) Change the customer nameserver IP addresses at Namecheap
Basically, I want to verify that I won't experience the 24 to 48 hrs of downtime associated with changing nameservers. Additionally, are there any known disadvantages of having custom nameservers on a shared hosting plan?
Custom NameServer Issues For Resellers
Jan 27, 2008I seem to be having some issues with custom nameservers on my Cpanel VPS.
I've setup Custom nameservers for my resellers after getting some advice from WHT however no my resellers seem to be having DNS issues all of the time when using the custome nameservers.
If a reseller uses our main Nameservers then everything seems to work fine, its just the custom ones that have issues.
The custom name servers are setup as follows.
Main Nameservers
N1.Domainname.co.uk - IP XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
N2.Domainname.co.uk - IP XXX.XXX.XXX.XX2
Custom Nameserver:
DNS Zone added for
NS1.RESELLERDOMAIN.COM - IP XXX.XXX.XXX.XX1
NS2.RESELLERDOMAIN.COM - IP XXX.XXX.XXX.XX2
DNS zones point to same IPs a Main Nameservers.
Issues include problems with reg companies, Cron Jobs failing when looking for the server etc...
Setting Up NameServer Redirection
Apr 5, 2007I'm a reseller with a few seperate servers. Thus, trying to set up a 2ndry set of NS records. Setup as follow:
main-domain.com : Hosting domain
main-server.com : Main Reseller server, hosting main-domain.com
2nd-server.com : Another reseller server
hosted-domain.com : A domain hosted on my 2nd-server.com
1. Main domain DNS, pointing to main-server.com (On NS.main-server.com).
2. On main server, NS1 & NS2.main-domain.com pointing to NS.main-server.com)
3. On main server, set up 2ndry NS - NS3 & NS4.main-domain.com as CNAME pointing to 2nd-server.com (NS1 & NS2.2nd-server.com)
4. hosted-domain DNS pointing to NS3 & NS4.main-domain.com
Problem is, NS3 & NS4 are working - But when i try looking up hosted-domain.com i get a 404 error.
What am i doing wrong?
Best Setting For Nameserver External
Apr 7, 2008I have 1 dedicated where is domain.com + ns1.domain.com + ns2.domain.com
ns1 and ns2 is setting on namecheap and on WHM
Now must set 6 new server and set nameserver from ns3 to ns14.domain.com and hostname from s1 to s6.domain.com
It's right to set this only under domain.com dns as
s1 14400 IN a IP_NEW_SERVER
ns3 14400 IN a IP_NEW_SERVER
ns4 14400 IN a IP_NEW_SERVER
..
OR we must also add
domain.com 14400 IN NS ns3.domain.com.
domain.com 14400 IN NS ns4.domain.com.
..
OR/AND is better to setting this also into namecheap "nameserver registration"?
Plesk 12.x / Linux :: Reseller Custom DNS Template
Apr 2, 2015Is there a chance to change the default nameserver name for customers created by a reseller.
Example:
System wide default
ns.provider.de
ns2.prodiver.de
ns3.provider.de
Now the reseller wants:
ns.reseller.de
ns2.reseller.de
ns3.reseller.de
The NS-Entries of the reseller may be the same physical nameserver, but it should be anonymized. How can I achieve that?
Setting Up Private Nameservers For Reseller
Jun 3, 2007I 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?
Can A Nameserver Be Specified In An A Record By Another Nameserver
Apr 4, 20081) I use DNSMadeEasy for a couple of my important domains so I can utilize their failover service.
2) I use my own nameservers for everyone else.
At my register (GoDaddy) I've added host entries to my domain (let's call it host.com) for ALL of my nameservers: DNSMadeEasy and mine. For example here are my host entries:
1) nsdme0.host.com = 55.55.55.55 (DNSMadeEasy)
2) nsdme1.host.com = 56.55.55.55 (DNSMadeEasy)
3) nsdme2.host.com = 57.55.55.55 (DNSMadeEasy)
4) nsdme3.host.com = 58.55.55.55 (DNSMadeEasy)
5) nsdme4.host.com = 59.55.55.55 (DNSMadeEasy)
6) ns1.host.com = 60.55.55.55 (mine)
7) ns2.host.com = 61.55.55.55 (mine)
At the register I've then configured host.com to use the first five nameservers for itself, the DNSMadeEasy nameservers.
For less critical sites that I host I simply point them to ns1.host.com and ns2.host.com, my nameservers.
Now, here's the twist. If I use dig to look up www.host.com I get:
[root@lax1 ~]# dig +trace www.host.com
; <<>> DiG 9.3.3rc2 <<>> +trace www.host.com

What I've realized is that the actual IP addresses for nameserver host entries come from a higher level server than my own, in this case H.GTLD-SERVERS.net. I guess this makes sense but I just hadn't realized it before. It looks like I don't even need to have record entries in my DNS records for the host nameservers.
Now for the question. Can I:
1) Remove my custom host nameserver entries from my register.
2) Add entries in my DNSMadeEasy records to specify the location of ns1.host.com and ns2.host.com.
3) Use the failover provided by DNSMadeEasy to also fail-over my DNS entries for my nameservers?
I know this would require one more hop if it works but it would allow me to provide failover ability to fifty domains without having to purchase the extra domains at DNSMadeEasy.
All Reseller's Accounts Showing Under Root When I Click "Show Reseller Accounts"
Aug 2, 2008We 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"?
Allow Custom Php.ini
Jun 12, 2009I would like to know how to allow customers to use their own php.ini file. I have had hosts in the past that allowed you to use a custom php.ini file so long as you put it in every directory that you would need to use it.
I was just trying to figure out how this is done as I am new to all of this and trying to learn.

Mar 15, 2007I have a reseller account on a server, and I have a client who needs to used a custom php.ini file to set the session.save_path variable. He has created this file and placed in the public_html folder, but this path still comes up as 'No Value' and the Configuration File Path still reads '/usr/local/Zend/etc/php.ini '.
What do I need to do to get this site to read from the correct php.ini file? I tried setting this in the .htaccess file, to no avail.

Jun 30, 2009I have a domain hosted at godaddy.com and I decided to go with VPS hosting elsewhere. I have changed the nameservers to [url]and [url]at godaddy. I set up the reseller account in WHM but the nameservers point to something other than [url]I am trying to change them to the correct nameservers by using the "Nameserver IP Assigment" tool but it is taking literally forever. Is this normal?
Should I have to wait until it assigns an IP address to use the correct nameserver?

Is this normal while the changes propogate? Or did I mess something up, because I also cannot access my VPS cpanel now.

Jun 15, 2008Say a person has a domain called mydomain.com
and this domain mydomain.com is hosted from a nameserver called ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com
will this mean that:
the person who own mydomain.com owned his/her own webhost server?
and is that what is being called dedicated server? where I already did some research that would mean the whole server is owned by the 1 person/domain only?
I have been asking question to myself quite sometime now.. and hoping that this forum could help me in understanding this matter.

Oct 6, 2007I just took out a VPS hosting plan with Hostican, but I'm a bit confused about whether I followed their instructions properly... please be patient
Their instructions said this:
Quote:
Please note that on our network a VPS is like your own private space on the network to work from. This is why we provide your account with two dedicated IP addresses that you will need to use to register your name servers with. Please view the below name servers and IP addresses that you should use to register them.
ns1.mydomain.com <==> xx.xx.xx.xx
ns2.mydomain.com <==> xx.xx.xx.xx
Now all my domains are registered with 1&1, who don't provide an option for creating private nameservers in their control panel. So, I created two subdomains (ns1 and ns2.mydomain.com) and then created A records for ns1 and ns2, pointing to the IPs supplied by Hostican. Then I changed the nameserver for my domains to ns1 and ns2.mydomain.com
After a couple of days, this seems to have worked - domains point to new VPS webspace and emails working. I'm worried whether I did this properly though, or whether I'm going to get problems in future with reverse dns and stuff?

Different NameServer IPs
Jan 3, 2007I did ping the nameservers,

Nov 4, 2007I just got a VPS, (unmanaged...eh), and I seem to be having a problem with nameservers.
The current IP for the VPS is: [url]
Its set as the shared IP in WHM, so everything is pointing to that. I asked my host if the nameservers ns1.thehobbylounge.com and ns2.thehobbylounge.com should work (that is the domain for the account I am running under WHM/cPanel), and I was told that this was correct.
However my registrar gives me a validation error when I put in those nameservers for my domain.
I tried to follow these steps: [url]
But they seem to be already done...I think thats if your server isn't setup at all.

Oct 20, 2007can't seem to figure out how the whole nameserver/DNS thing works.
My VPS is registered under a domain, say mydomain.com. So my nameservers on the VPS are registered under ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com, both assigned to the two IP addresses for my VPS.
The problem is, I'm trying to figure out how to get mydomain.com to actually point to my VPS from my registrar. If I type in ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com, it's just pointing to itself so it doesn't work.

Oct 30, 2007I has a reseller plan and I was using one of my domains as nameserver. I mean ziafat.com was my nameserver and one of my sites.
Now I transfered to a VPS plan. I want to use my domain as nameserver and one of my sites. I changed domain manage page like this:
ns1.ziafat.com
ns2.ziafat.com
on the bottom of page I clicked this:
If you want to create or modify a nameserver which is based on ziafat.com click here.
and entered ns1.ziafat.com and ns2.ziafat.com and two IPs of my VPS plan.
Now all sites hosted on my new VPS opening currectly just ziafat.com (priemery and nameserver) domain opening as a blank site!
I saw server technical created a reseller account with ziafatco username and all of my accounts are under ownership of that.
