Domain Pointer !

[ceo]

Need your help here.

I have 1 main user account "domainA.com"
I have created over 50 user accounts for other domains.
But need to UNDO it, cause it's not efficient.

My requirement is this :
Need to PARK 50 names on this one domain name, but edit NS details so MX record goes to other addresses.

This is what I thought of:
At the registrar, I will use my nameservers NS1.whatever.com & NS2.whatever.com (which are on the same dedicated server as my hosting accounts) for all 50 domains.

Then on my server, I will have all the 50 as pointers to "domainA.com"
I did one as an example. Let's call it "domainB.com"

Now I need to know where do I go to edit the NS info,
cause I need the MX to point somewhere else for that name ?

As a Reseller where do I go?
Is it available in the reseller Area ? or in the user area for "domainA.com" ?


After much probing, I noticed on the help for Administrator :
"The DNS administration menu allows you to modify the DNS settings of any domain name hosted on the server. "

But I do not want to go to the Admin level to get this done.
Reseller or User.
What should I do ?


Thanks !

Resellers don't get to directly edit DNS records.

As a user you can edit the DNS for each domain you setup, but not for pointer domains.

You'll either have to get your hosting company involved, or use an external DNS service.

Thanks Jeff,

I am also the Administrator of the server.
Meaning it's Dedi I own.
So I will login as an Admin and make the changes...

But I thought it a bit silly to have to resort to that.
After all, a reseller creates pointers to 1 domain, thus the reseller is the one who may need changes on the DNS for one of the pointers.....

NP, if DA does not have it now. As long as I can do it somewhere, it will work for now.... But if what I said makes sense, then DA should look at this...
