Topic:Internal dns, installing self dns
By installing
ehcp, you have dns already installed. You don"t need to install a
separate dns server after installing ehcp.ehcp installs bind
dns server, and configures it to work with your domains.for
example, if you setup yourdomain.com in your ehcp gui, these dns
records already setup by ehcp:
ns1.yourdomain.com,
ns2.yourdomain.com,
dns1.yourdomain.com,
dns2.yourdomain.com,
ns.yourdomain.com,
dns.yourdomain.com
so, you may use these, as one of your dns server, or nameserver,when
you host many sites in your server, (usually done like this)you
should choose one of your domains as dns domain (main domain),so,
you should use that domain as (like ns1.maindomain.com,
ns2.maindomain.com),dns server of all your domains. You
should set dns server of yourotherdomain.com to ns1.maindomain.com,
ns2.maindomain.com, in domain controlpanel, which is provided by
domain seller.Let"s summerize: suppose you have
maindomain.com, otherdomain1.com, otherdomain2.com,
| your domain name: | dns 1 for this domain: | dns 2 for this domain: | What to do? |
| maindomain.com | ns1.maindomain.com | ns2.maindomain.com | - buy domain, then set dns to this
- setup domain in ehcp
|
| otherdomain1.com | ns1.maindomain.com | ns2.maindomain.com | - buy domain, then set dns to this
- setup domain in ehcp
|
| otherdomain2.com | ns1.maindomain.com | ns2.maindomain.com | - buy domain, then set dns to this
- setup domain in ehcp
|
| otherdomain3.com | ns1.maindomain.com | ns2.maindomain.com | - buy domain, then set dns to this
- setup domain in ehcp
|
| xxxx.com | ns1.maindomain.com | ns2.maindomain.com | - buy domain, then set dns to this
- setup domain in ehcp
|
For
your resellers or domain admins: you should give them your dns
as:ns1.maindomain.com,ns2.maindomain.com,note that you
need to replace maindomain.com as your own domain name.
