Hello all, Okay, I have been ripping my hair over this, but still cannot get it working. I bought a VPS with Godaddy (Yes, some people tell me this was a mistake), and I am trying to setup a hostname and nameserver on it. I received an email saying I had successfully set up a registrar for ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com. However, when I try and setup an account, it says this: +===================================+ | New Account Info | +===================================+ | Domain: mydomain.com | Ip: 111.119.111.111 (n) | HasCgi: y | UserName: mydomain | PassWord: domain | CpanelMod: x | HomeRoot: /home | Quota: 0 Meg | NameServer1: ns1.mydomain.com | NameServer2: ns1.mydomain.com <<<< THIS IS THE PROBLEM! | NameServer3: | NameServer4: | Contact Email: +===================================+ Now, why on earth is it saying for me to set both nameservers to NS1? I don't understand Any help much appreciated!
Basic cpanel / whm setup, (1st option, top left) change your nameservers in there and try again. Does the domains root hostname resolve properly ?
Well, I have set the secondary nameserver to NS2, but still no luck :/ The root hostname yes, does resolve properly.
In cpanel there is an option to enter a records for the nameserver. I would recommend you make sure it is correctly entered.
Nah dude do the following FIRST lets see if the server has the right info login as root click basic settings check for nameservers, they are there? ok lets move on on the left it should say "Add an "A" entry" click it and add it That should fix it but lets see further Click reseller centre click edit priveledges on any reseller accounts at the bottom check for nameservers, if they arent there then add em and then "Add an 'A' entry" for all of them Do that and you'll be good.
