I'm very new to this web hosting thing. I purchased a dedicated server plan with free 1 IP and I registered a new domain at godaddy. Now I want that domain to point to my dedicated server with Cpanel Web host manager. How do i do that? I've tried putting two namservers, ns1.vrtservers.net and ns2.vrtservers.net in Godaddy but the domain name doesn't directs to the dedicated server. I Hope I'll be helped fairly. Thanx in advance.
I am still having the problem. I guess the main problem is with the web host settings. What should be my host name? and which IP should i Mention?
if you have your own whm/cpanel .. just add domain to your cpanel account and change nameserver on your godaddy account (domain ) to ns1.vrtservers.net and ns1.vrtservers.net cmiiw
Just change the A Record and point to the dedicated server IP Have your files hosted inside htdocs and you will see your site live.
Your host name should be ns1.yourdomain.com and ns2.yourdomain.com; but you only have to enter ns1 and ns2 on the host field. Your IP should be the IP/IPs of your dedicated server.
I suppose if you wish to use your custom nameservers you need to install them on your server first of all.
