    Hi,

    I would like to know if you know how to setup a neme server on a dedicated server.
    What I want to do is to point a domain to a dedicated server.

    The domain today is pointing to a hosting (full functionning)
    We bought a new hosting with PHP,MSQL,Apache...Webmin
    Using Webmin I create a new space for my website with the name of the domain
    The goal today: How to change the nameserver for the domain so that It show the new website not the last one.

    I know how to do this manipulation with share hosting using godaddy, namecheap (for domain)

    Thanks for your help

    Yeah you have to change name server from the domain control panel, also you have to register server Ips with the nameservers you will be using. Contact Domain registrar they will set it up easily.

    Its no big deal actually. Just assign the nameserver ips to your BIND or what ever dns service that you are using on your server. Create hostnames on the domain control panel. Then create A records for those hostnames in the DNS zone for that domain (on the server) It should start pinging in some time, and you can start using the ns for all the domains that you have got.
