Hello guys, I'm going crazy with Vanity Nameservers and my domain name mediamate.co. Hosting : Digital Ocean Domain: mediamate.co Registrar: Godaddy This is what I've done: 1. I have a domain name registered at Godaddy, I've created 2 GLUE records for NS1/NS2 pointing them to DigitalOcean Nameservers (screenshot: http://cl.ly/image/370D1d2L1v2Z) 2. In Godaddy I have changed my primary domain nameservers to reflect the new configuration (screenshot: http://cl.ly/image/3n3A1T2k1K3y) 3. I've updated the DNS settings in DigitalOcean creating NS and A records screenshot: http://cl.ly/image/3n1d443d3104 4. Finally, I've updated the DNS zone settings on my zPanel by creating two A records ns1 and ns2 and pointing them to Digital Ocean nameservers, screenshot: http://cl.ly/image/2k0N262u0U2G together with two NS records: http://cl.ly/image/0L1U2M1c1d0V mediamate.co is working and reachable but if I point any other domain to the new nameservers it will result unreachable. When checking my domain DNS configuration with online tools like intodns.com this is what I get ============== INFO: GLUE was not sent when I asked your nameservers for your NS records.This is ok but you should know that in this case an extra A record lookup is required in order to get the IPs of your NS records. The nameservers without glue are: 198.199.120.125 173.245.59.41 You can fix this for example by adding A records to your nameservers for the zones listed above. (A records exists in my DNS zone file) ============== I don't understand if something is wrong with my zPanel DNS configuration or if the problem is related to DNS settings on DigitalOcean / Godaddy. Any help is appreciated! Thanks
Hey, I'm not entirely sure how zPanel DNS configuration functions, but you might want to try here: http://cl.ly/image/3n1d443d3104 Make it: - instead of ns1.mediamate.co. => ns1 - instead of ns2.mediamate.co. => ns2 I know it basically means the same thing, but it might be something worth trying. I know that in cPanel they're simple ns1, ns2, not the entire domain name and it works just fine.
