DNS duplicate/forwarding question

[adriangrz]

Hi,

I need help with solution as descibed below:

I have DA server 1 which has ns1.domain1.com ns2.domain2.com it has own IP etc. normal server which contains some users with domains.
Im planning to migrate users to second server as server 2 with dns ns1.domain2.com ns2.dmoain2.com
Some users cant change DNS settings on their domains (they lost access to domain panel in registrar to change dns settings for domain).

Now I want to migrate users to server2 without changing ns settings in domain registrars panel.

Is it possible to forward/clone/migrate traffic from NS domain1.com ->NS domain2.com ?

I mean without access to registrar point to second server?

Kindly regards,
Adrian

Don't understand your question in full but you can use Multi Server setup of Directadmin
Only requirement is that both of the server must have DA panel on it

I've done this once using haproxy as an frontend. Maybe you can dive into that?

You configure haproxy on server1 and split http requests based on hostnames. You can find examples here: https://www.haproxy.com/documentation/haproxy-configuration-tutorials/

(they lost access to domain panel in registrar to change dns settings for domain).

They shoul regain the access anyway in case they want to make changes or for example if they want to cancel their domain name.
It's not that hard to regain access again.

I hope your haproxy config will work. But still I would advise them to regain access.
