Hi,
I'm a bit stuck! So I'm hoping someone can help!!!

I have searched these forums for an answer and they all explain how to setup "BOTH" the name servers (ns1 and ns2) at the same time. However, I only want to add ns2, because ns1 is already working fine (with the correct IP Address assigned).

In short:
I already have "ns1" setup already, but I now need to add ns2, because ns2 was deleted (don't ask! it's a long story :mad: but "in short" my provider needed that IP back and assigned me a new one).

Anyway! What I now need to know is:
How can I add ONLY "ns2" to Direct Admin (it's wanting to setup BOTH ns1 and ns2 from the start).

By the way: I have assigned the new IP to Admin and it's ready to go. All I need to know is: How can I add ns2.my-domain-name.com to show up in: Admin => Reseller => IP (I only see ns1.my-domain-name.com at the moment, I don't see ns2.my-domain-name.com).

I'll get the GLUE Records updated once I've done this...

It's complicated, I know :confused:

Thanks...

Do you want to host both NS servers on one Directadmin server or what?

Why don't update IP for NS2 in DNS and at your registrar?
