![]() ![]() Now, for any of my domain names that I host on my VDS, I just use (and NS2 of course, for the 2nd IP address) for their name servers. Then, for, under the domain management section, I entered the (2) IP addresses that were assigned to my VDS into the Host Summary section.Īh hah, now I think I see the errors of my ways… I never needed to set up a host account for to set it up as a name server! I only needed to go into the domain manager section (that comes with a simple domain registration), and enter the IP numbers of the VDS into the Host Summary" section there. ![]() So lets say that domain,, is hosted all alone. But do I need to have a completely different host for that domain, the one that I will use as the name server for the VDS? I mean, how could I have hosted on the same server that uses “ ” as its own name server? Kinda seems like things would end up in some kind of infinite loop or something.Īnyhow, here’s how I currently have it working: I purchased a single hosting account on GoDaddy in order to host the domain that will act as the name server for my Godaddy VS. I think I understand your question more than the other responses because I have the exact same questions…īasically stated, because I have purchased a Godaddy Virtual Dedicated Server, I know that I need a name server. JIAM, I suppose you got your issue resolved by now. Can somebody recommend a good resource to learn how IP, DNS, nameservers, etc work? Any book, paid website, video… anything ? While there’s a ton of info on the web, all is scattered and none seems to be too detailed enough for somebody starting to learn about this. ![]() What are the drawbacks of hosting multiple sites under the same IP? I control all sites under these IPs If I used DNS backup services for will that apply to and which I used for my VPS? and therefore will be applicable to other domains I host? Does this make sense? Or would I need a separate backup for each domain I host? Can I use one backup for multiple domains? Are DNS backup services valuable if I host my own nameservers? Any suggestions on good quality providers? Price not an issue. Can I still use those IP’s to actually host websites, or do I need additional IP’s to host the actual sites? Any value in keeping each IP dedicated to a nameserver? If I host my nameservers in my VPS, I will need a separate IP for each one (ns1, ns2…and so on). Even if this is possible, is it a good idea or would it be better to host it somewhere else? When I try to define those as the nameservers in Godaddy I get the error message Nameserver not registered. nameserver is used for the same domain in which it is named. Can I setup and as the nameserververs for ? i.e. So, I got a brand new domain to act as the host of the rest of the domains I’m setting up: In the VPS I have setup this one as the default domain for nameservers: In the past I’ve used individual accounts to host a couple of other websites and haven’t paid much attention to nameserver setup, just configured at my registrar whatever I was given from the hosting service. I just got a VPS plan for the first time where I want to host several new websites. ![]()
