I am currently using for example these nameservers:
ns1.mydomain.com
ns2.mydomain.com
but I am also thinking of offering hosting, and would like to setup seperate nameservers for example:
ns1.myhosting.com
ns2.myhosting.com
Is it possible to do this, with both sets of domains utilising the same dedicated server?
Would they all need seperate IPs, or can I use the same IP that ns1.mydomain.com is using for ns1.myhosting.com?
list the obvious and not so obvious. And how easy would it be to set one up?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a question:
Is it possible to use mplayer, ffmpeg, mencoder from one server while having the program / script calling the conversion from another server?
a good deal of the price in buying servers frequently comes from a nice motherboard, chassis, etc. having to purchase those items twice is just taking away from other components you could be adding to one server-- more ram, more/faster cpu's, etc. not to mention the wasted overhead in just running the operating system twice.
considering all of those factors, wouldn't it be logical to build a nicer single server rather than two "okay" servers?
the only real advantages I see are
1) potentially httpd could be reachable when mysql isn't... but for something like vb, that's almost a moot point
2) at some point you're going to hit a point where buying a nicer CPU isn't really worth the money; spending twice the money for a 10% performance increase, etc. but it seems like multiple cpu's could still get around that.
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
im currently planning to launch a number of sites that may or may not take off. Basically my question is that most people tell me to seperate the web server and db server, and i believe this is because of interfering IO between the two, and the cpu not being able to alocate between both of them effectively. How effective do you think a Dual Xeon box would be to run apache,squid,php, and mysql. I figured my original plan was 2 servers (each xeons for the db with a raid1+0), but going a dual xeon seems like a decent choice since we would only need to pay for 1U at a colo with opportunity to move the db off of it later when we need to and replicate the webserver when needed. Let me know if im off my mark here. I didnt post req/sec or anything because this is just a seperate xeon boxes VS dual xeon single box.

I want to take each of my httpd.conf domain configurations and store them in seperate files on the drive.
Can someone give me real world examples from their config of what is needed in httpd.conf and then what is needed in each seperate host file.
I would like to find out from users how they designed and layout their networks when it comes to subnets.
Currently we have 3 subnet's of different sizes which house our network equipment such as Switches, PDU's, Log Servers etc. but also on these same subnet's are servers which we provide web hosting and VPS services. We also have some clients on these subnets with dedicated servers.
I am curious about this network design. Is it acceptable to house our operational equipment such as switches, PDU's etc on these same subnets which has client access servers or should be obtain a small seperate subnet to house this equipment for security and isolation reasons.
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.
I just tried westhost. Very nice folks, good reviews, worth a shot. I signed up for a regular hosting account that allows multiple domains. That didn't work for email. An email user has access to email under that users name for all domains attached to the account. so you can't have info@abc.com, info@def.com, etc. One info@ per account. I did find a hack for it, but it wouldn't work with web mail.
So now I need to find a host that separates mail by domain WITH webmail.
This is getting so tiresome. I have a VPS with "the planet", but so many things just don't work out of the box. I've been fighting with them about PHP not sending mail for months. DNS problems everytime I setup a new domain. There has to be an easier way!
15 domains, everything needs to work. I don't want to manage anything. No resellers. The company I host with will own the data center.
I currently have one server a
Dual Xeon 5130 2GHZ (woodcrest)
2GB Ram.
Running cPanel/WHM
Now I run a website that is VERY PHP & MySQL Intensive and MySQL is ALWAYS the top of the process list, hogging a ton of usage. It's getting to the point where the site is needed a second server and I know there's a few options; but I'm not sure which one would be the best.
They way I see it my two options are getting a 2nd server and setting up the two to do load balancing, or getting a 2nd server and setting one up for just Apache and the Other for MySQL and using the 2nd as a remote SQL server.
If I do the Apache on a seperate server would I need such a powerful server? And if I also would want to upgrade this server along with getting a 2nd server would I be better of upgrading to 4GB of RAM or upgrading the processors?
i have a hosting account which hosts a couple of my sites. Now i have contracted a new site project to a programmer.
I want to give him access to the control panel so that he can manage the site completely(setup database, mail etc) without letting him on any of the info on my other two sites. For my current hosting account it means providing him with
my hosting account administrative login, that means he has access to other sites too.
The other option is providing him only a ftp account to upload files only to the particular directory for that project. But the problem with this is that then he cannot setup a database etc. on his own, he needs to provide me sql script which i then use to create the database from the control panel.
Can a reseller hosting account solve my problem..... seperate control panel (administrate all things like databse, mail, password protecting files) for each site?
Any other suggestions, this is the first time i bought hosting.
Any reading material(books or online) to get familiar with each aspect of running and managing a website(mailservers, security, dns for site, backups etc. etc.)?
Server 1 (main domain resides here example.com)
domain = example.com
current nameserver = ns1.example.com
current nameserver = ns2.example.com
Wanted to use the same domain name to create a new nameserver on server 2.
Server 2
ns3.example.com
ns4.example.com
How do I do that?
I am running a very small webhosting company,and have one server with cpanel.I have set up the nameservers of server.
For example:ns1.mydns.com & ns2.mydns.com
And now the server is full and I have set up another server.How should I set nameserver?I have to change a domain?
For example:ns1.mydns2.com & ns2.mydns2.com
So that means if I have many servers,I have to register many nameservers?
How can I set one domain nameservers to these servers?
How does Name servers setup with dedicated server? can I ask my hosting provider setup private name servers for my clients (who will be on shared and VPS?)?
We will use IP addresses for this reason? Is Hyper-V available on Windows 2003 standard?
I'm about to buy server for hosting but how is it possible to make two different IP's from one server?
I mean some places won't let register unless you have two different nameservers with two different IP's.
I hired a guy to secure and setup nameserves on my dedicated box. I'm on a time crunch and have not heard from him in 24 hours, so thought I'd ask here.
How can I find out if nameservers are running on my box, and what IP they are running on?
I recentely signed up for a dedicated server and paid for 10 domain plesk pack, and can setup everything with plesk for hosting just fine
Do I use my IP for the server as the name server or do I add dns entries for ns1.domain.com & ns2.domain.com?
What name servers do I use with my virtual dedicated server on godaddy ? i talked to them on live chat and they replied to read this page [url]
I followed the steps but when i login to control panel at godaddy it doesnt show links which are said in the above topic.
My domain is registered at yahoo domains and i purchased virtual dedicate server hosting at godaddy.
Is there a way to use ns1/ns2.yourhostdomain.com for not only your shared hosting clients but also for your linux AND windows 2003 dedicated server clients (or vps)?
View 1 Replies View Relatedour company is ordering a new dedicated server and we are a little unsure what we should choose as far as the full hostname and nameservers of this one server.
This server will have a couple different websites on it, but really, there is only one BIG website on it... let's call it abcd.com.
While most would pick a hostname of host.abcd.com for instance, if at all possible, we would like the domain name part of the hostname to be something different than abcd.com. We own a domain name that doesn't point to anything yet (unuseddomain.com) and we were wondering if we could use that domain in our hostname.. host.unuseddomain.com.
And instead of using abcd.com as the domain name for our own nameservers (ie. ns1.abcd.com, ns2.abcd.com), we would like to again, use the unused domain name we own (unuseddomain.com) for the nameservers domain name: ns1.unuseddomain.com, ns2.unuseddomain.com.
So...
Will this work? Is this perfectly acceptable?
And lastly...
Since the one website we really care about on this server (the one we got the server for in the first place) is abcd.com, is using the unuseddomain.com for the hostname and nameservers (as above) a bad choice in anyway regarding email deliverability? I understand that mail ISP's (hotmail, yahoo, etc.) do all kinds of checks on hostnames (PTR), etc... and we want to make sure that we aren't hurting ourselves in anyway by using an "empty" domain name that we own as our hostname's and nameserver's domain name.
For instance, if we send mail from the abcd.com account, it will use mail.abcd.com (1.1.1.1) as it's outgoing mail server... Hotmail will see this... do a reverse-dns lookup on 1.1.1.1 and see host.unuseddomain.com. See what I'm saying? It all will work, but will it toss up red flags?
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 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.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI 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.

If i create a vps using openvz and use a new ip for that vps e.x:
123.456.789.0
What nameservers i must use to point my domain to that vps?
NS1 <--- 123.456.789.0
NS2 <--- ?
how can i run some VPS(diferent ip's) in a DedicatedServer with same nameserver.
example:
all sites in VPS1 using ip: 10.10.10.1
all sites in VPS2 using ip: 10.10.10.2
all sites in VPS3 using ip: 10.10.10.3
all in a DedicatedServer
now i want using ns1.dns.com for all sites.
xen/openvz on Centos/RHLE used.
I recently bourght a dedicated server, and found out I don't know whta my name servers are, the company gave me there nameservers, I was fine, but when I input my name servers in namecheap or godaddy ect, I get this:
Quote:
There is some problem updating the NameServers
The problem is: nRRPResponseCode 541
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?
hello
i really rely on your expertise guys please help me!
a cpanel server A has some domains on host 1
a new cpanel server B is set ready for migration on host B.
the greek registrar i use,
by accident (As they say) switched ips for my nameservers from A to B and the migration has not been done!!!!
can i set up a record or something on server B to forward all traffic back to server A ???????
Sorry i'm not a network expert. That's why i'm here
thanks
