Hi all - it's THAT time of the year again. To point a German domain to my server, I need to briefly assign a second IP to my other nameserver (if both nameservers point to the same IP, the update will fail).
I've done this idiotic exercise multiple time with the old DirectAdmin interface, but after being forced to switch to the new layout, I am stuck this time. Completely.
What I did is I tried to use the "IP Management" and "Nameservers" buttons on the main page. I thought I was successful, but after two days waiting for propagation, I ran "host ns2.mydomain.com" on my server and it seems the change didn't work at all.
Now I tried to change things up, only to make it even worse: It seems like this part of Evo/Directadmin is bug-ridden. After clicking on "Clear NS" I can do nothing to set up the second nameserver again. To delete the entry, I need to "free" it first, that however doesn't work because directadmin tells me the IP isn't tied to my reseller account (even though it is). The "remove from reseller" option has no effect, however, so it seems obvious that "assign" doesn't work properly either (hence the error).
I'm quite desperate because the site MUST go online by Tuesday, but with all these issues I just can't see this happening.
Thanks!
