Hello,
Just yesterday DA was installed for me.
I have a domain especially for the DA server.
I want to use the DA nameservers.
I have 2 free IP adresses
I used the following steps:
Step 1: Set a main domain name
By default, no web site is associated with your server.
1. Sign into your control panel at http://<server ip>:2222 as the admin user.
2. Switch to the User panel (link is near the top right of screen)
3. Click the "Add Another Domain" text link.
4. Enter your domain name into the box and click Submit.
Step 2: Create nameservers (optional)
1. Add at least one additional IP address to your sever.
Sign into DirectAdmin as the admin user, then select IP Manager from the menu. To add an IP address, enter the IP address in the "IP" field, then click the "Add IP" button. Then, place a checkmark next to all the IP addresses and click the "Assign to [username]" button at the bottom of the screen. Your Admin username should be in the dropdown menu.
2. Create the nameservers.
Switch to your Reseller panel (near top right of screen) and click the Name Servers icon. If there happen to be any nameservers currently listed, delete them first by placing checkmarks next to them and clicking the "Delete Nameservers" button.
Place checkmarks next to any two IP addresses and then click the "Create Nameservers for" button, selecting the domain you want the nameservers for.
3. Tell DirectAdmin that these will be the primary nameservers.
Switch back to the Admin panel and click Admin Settings. Make sure the NS1/NS2 fields are accurate, and then click "Save."
I have now the following nameservers in DA
ns1.mydomain.com
ns2.mydomain.com
Both with different ip adresses
Do I need to do something more?
Thanks
Rene
