Dedicated Server DNS Setting up issue - UK Web Hosting | Dedicated Server Windows and Linux VPS Forum

**natehall** · #1 (**permalink**) 17-08-2007, 09:56

Ok - here is my problem:

We currently own 3 domain names which we want to resolve to the new dedicated server we have with Euk - and will be moving our current domain to point to the server, i have full root access to the server and dont mind getting my hands dirty.

However we cant seam to get anything to resolve to the server, I am using Easily as my domain registrar and could do with some quick help on what i need to do. We do not hold a domain with eukhost for custom DNS settings.

Thanks Guys

Nate

Hello Nate,

First you need to ensure that you have registered 2 private nameservers with Easily. Those 2 private nameservers should point to 2 different IPs on your server.

You can point all your domains to this 2 nameservers once those 2 nameservers are registered.

feel free to open a ticket for me on our helpdesk if you want me to help you with registration of nameservers and any other DNS problem.

If you contact them then they should be able to do it easily (no pun intended) for you

Hmm - the plot thickens

it appears the name servers are set up and resolving properly - which means my issue can only be on the server

CentOS 5.0 had setup some unwanted entries in named.conf and Alex was aware of those. He got those removed and all your domains started resolving immediately.
