Ok I want to make sure I understand what I'm doing before I mess with this.
I just purchased a dedicated box with DA on it.
They initally set it up with one of my 5 IP's.
I added eth0:0-3 via ssh (thats how I'm used to doing it) with the required info to add the other 4 IP's to the machine. Then I discovered DA IP management. I went ahead and tried to add each address there and it gave an error about it already exsisting and then displayed them in the list.
I edited the /etc/hosts file to point 2 IP's to NS1 and NS2 as my register doesn't allow everything to point to 1 IP.
So as it stands I have all 5 IP's configured and added to the box.
I'm looking at the DNS config for the box and see that DNS is currently pointed back at the root domain causing it to show NS1 and NS2 on the same IP. So below is the current config.
Do I simply recreate the NS lines with the correct IP's on the left to put NS1 and NS2 on seperate IP's
or swap them so that NS1 and NS2 are on the left and IPs are on the left like the rest of the entrys.
