I have just installed DA on FreeBSD 4.9 and have ran into an issue setting up the initial nameservers.
I have followed the how to to do this, but I keep getting an error. Here is the how to I followed:
To setup your nameservers, simply do the following:
- Login to your DirectAdmin panel as "admin"
- Go to your IP Management section, and add two new IP addresses
- Once they are added, click the check boxes next to the two IPs that you've just submitted. Assign these IPs to "admin"
- Now go to your Reseller panel, and navigate to your Nameserver section
- On this page, create your two nameservers, generally ns1. and ns2.
- Finally, go back to your Admin panel and go to your Administrator Settings page. Set your nameservers to the ones you have just created and save your changes.
I go to the reseller panel, check the boxes next to the two open IP's I will use and click on "create", it returns "______ is not a domain". I know the issue here. So I then go to create a site so it can base the NS's on it and I cannot create it because it shows "none" in the IP field, even though I have two open IP's available and assigned to admin.
I know this is probably so simple I am just overlooking the resolution. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
