I have got a VPS and a IP address, can any one explain me how can I setup name servers. I have got lxadmin too What other things do I need to do. I have got this VPS just for learning purpose.
As I know when you order a VPS you will ask to set up your NS after that you have to register your NS and IP to your domain registrar. done
What other DNS config and other stuff do I need to do? can any one provide me just hints on what would need to be configured ? Thanks in advance
in lxadmin, once you create a domain, the dns is automatically configured by lxadmin to point to your domain. all you have to do is create a host like ns1.domain.com to point to your vps ip address. goodluck!
there will be a DNS Template link just use that to create set of nameservers if u create ns1.chandan.org then u got to create one name server ns1 in chandan.org domain registrar with defined IP
Every domain registrar or most of them allow users to register nameservers just find out how to do it and register urs
If you need help in setting the DNS's and IP's let me know, i can help you out easily as of experience
I know how to register them in goddady but i didn't understand how we create them. If i have only one ip for a vps how we add both NS1 and NS2? NS1 <--- 123.456.789.0 NS2 <--- ?
Firstly you need to make some custom name servers. Go to godaddy domain manager and select your domain. If i remember right there is an option at the botton left to add a host. Go there and press the add button. First one should be called NS1 with the IP address of your VPS Second one should be called NS2, the IP address of this could be the same as the first, but if you have more than one IP address that your not using, put this in there. All domains you now want to use your VPS should have the name servers change to: ns1.yourdomain.com ns2.yourdomain.com including the yourdomain.com This will now send all requests for them domains to your VPS servers. Now in lxadmin add the domains to ensure the server knows to accept and direct these requests. If you kindly ask your host they should help out, if not do most of it for you at no charge. We would
I understand all of them exept this So i must add in the panel that i will use lxadmin ,direct admin,cpane only the nameservers names without to point them in any ip? e.x ns1.yourdomain.com ns2.yourdomain.com ? Or i must add there also in the panel the ip's in this way: NS1 <--- 123.456.789.0 NS2 <--- 123.456.789.0 (or a second ip from vps) ? Also why i can't connect after creating the vps using basic Centos template to ssh? And when i use just the ip in firefox i can't view the centos welcome page (i don't have change the godady ns yet but i think is not need it because i use the ip and not the domain - the same with ssh) Thanks for your help
i signed up the vps in vps panel went to dns template made ns1.domain.com ns1.domain.com and ns2.domain.com with ip in domain registrar account in created ns1.domain.com ns2.domain.com and assigned that ip and pointed that domain to ns1 , ns2 too as i am using that domain in vps thats all i did not sure why you getting error what your vps guys told ?
I think it should work using only the ip without to go to registar and do the changes. Thanks for your help.
