    Hello,
    I have buy the dedicated server. But i do not know how to handle .I have just do it for my site.B'coz my site take the heavy loads on the servers and try the many host for that.Therefore i have buy this. Now the problem- when i ask what dns i have to change to transfer my site ,they said contact the registrar for DNS. For example- Suppose you have a Domain and you have buy a hosting from the another website. So you have change the dns like ns1.yourdomain.com ,ns2.yourdomain.com for transfer the domain.

    Where did u buy the domain? Contact him to change your domain's nameservers to new ones. But u can probably do it yourself if u have some kind of domain management.

    That is usually very basic helps to ask for a host, your host should able to help you with that, now if you ask help for these things or manage server to someone else, than you may have to pay for those small small helps or server manage

    You need to set up the name servers on your dedicated server, then update them at your registrar. Did you get a control panel with your server, cPanel/DirectAdmin or similar?

    use name servers of your domain registrar
    in the A record of the DNS (at your registrar) put the ip of you server

    there's a few ways to do it.. one of the easier way is for you to just use your registrar nameserver and just point your domain to your server IP.

    On your server add the domain to your apache config. When the transfer is done that should be it.

    BTW why are you using webmin? Did they install that for you? You should use something like virtualmin instead.

    Anyway if you need help just PM me. ;)
