DirectAdmin not adding DNS record

[Petertjuh360]

Hello all,

I am trying to add a 3rd nameserver and I followed this guide: http://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=196 .
However DirectAdmin is not adding the DNS record.

I created the file /usr/local/directadmin/data/templates/custom/dns_ns.conf with the following lines:

|NS1|=|DOMAIN|.
|NS2|=|DOMAIN|.
ns3.mydomain.nl.=|DOMAIN|.

The permission of the file is 755 and the file owners are set to diradmin:diradmin.
The ns1 and ns2 records are written on create.

I hope someone can help me.

I can't see anything wrong with what you say you have done. But my permissions are different. I have 711 on the custom folder, and 644 on the file dns_ns.conf. Also make sure that both the folder and file is set to diradmin diradmin

If you do not have a last empty line in dns_ns.conf, try to make a new empty line at the bottom after ns3...

Maybe try to restart DirectAdmin and see if that helps?: service directadmin restart

I have three name servers myself, and have done it like the guide in your link says, and it have always worked correct for me.

Adding an empty line did the trick, it works now.

Thanks for your help!
