Hi everyone, any advice would be great!

I have two DirectAdmin servers with IP’s:

edge.outeredgeuk.com - 88.208.220.254, 88.208.220.178, 88.208.220.179
cp.outeredgeuk.com - 88.208.231.34, 88.208.231.160, 88.208.231.161

At the moment all websites are on edge.outeredgeuk.com with name servers setup as per standard DirectAdmin guide as follows:

ns3.outeredgeuk.com - 88.208.220.178
ns4.outeredgeuk.com - 88.208.220.179

I have just bought another owned license for cp.outeredgeuk.com – on this server I would like to achieve the following:

Use with DA Multi Server option so that DNS is synced from edge.outeredgeuk.com

Create two more name servers ns1.outeredgeuk.com and ns2.outeredgeuk.com on cp so that all domains I currently have on edge will be able to use this server’s (cp) DNS records in-case there is a problem.

Be able to add other sites to this server also.

I suppose my questions therefore are as follows:

1. Do I add outeredgeuk.com as a domain on cp.outeredgeuk.com and copy all DNS records manually over from edge.outeredgeuk.com?

2. Should I setup ns1 and ns2 on cp.outeredgeuk.com as per the standard method in DA?

3. There is only an option to have new website account setup with “two” nameservers as default – how is this going to work so that each new website account will have nameservers setup that point to edge and cp?

Thank you so much!!
