How to set up nameservers?

[dotdoms]

Hello,

I am kinda new to server admin (that´s also why I bought DA), and would like to setup main nameservers on my server now. I got 5 IPs so I guess that should work, but I don´t know exactly how. Does there exist a tutorial on how to (what to do in DA and what DNS entries to set at one´s domain registrar)?

So here is what I tried so far, but didn´t work.

* Login as Admin to DA

* Go to IP management and add those Ips I have and asign them to "admin"

* Go to reseller layer

* Go to Extra Features -> nameserver

* Select those 2 IPs I assigned before and "create" ns1.mydomain.tld and ns2.mydomain.tld

* Go to Admin layer

* Go to Service Monitor and restart named service


Now that is what I did on my domain registrars zone file (for the main server domain which should be used for nameserver-domain as well):

NS Records ns1.mydomain.tld TTL ns2.mydomain.tld
Resource Record *.mydomain.tld TTL IN A [MAINSERVER-IP]
Resource Record ns1.mydomain.tld IN A [NS1-IP]
Resource Record ns2.mydomain.tld IN A [NS2-IP]

Doesn´t work. Would be thankful for any hint I can get Probably I messed with DA, probably with the zone file of the main server´s domain, I don´t know...

doesn't work is pretty nonspecific.

What specific problem are you having? How do you know it doesn't work?
