question about nameserver

[tamino]

Hello

i have a domain
xxxx1.com with nameservers as
ns.xxxx1.com & ns1.xxxx1.com

i have other servers do i need to regsiter new domains for each server or can i use the same domain on the other servers by registering new nameservers such as

ns2.xxxx1.com & ns3.xxxx1.com to be used on the new servers.
will there be any conflict ?

thank you

hope this makes sense.

You don't need to register another domain name. You can use ns3.example.com and ns4.example.com

1st server Domain : 212factory.com
Server nameserver: ns1.212factory.com & ns2.212factory.com

and


2nd server Domain : 212factory.com
Server nameserver: ns3.212factory.com & ns4.212factory.com

I would start with HostNames and put the domain name on 1 server.

Server 1:
Hostname: da1.212factory.com
Hosts domain name 212factory.com
Nameservers: ns1.212factory.com and ns2.212factory.com

Server 2:
Hostname: da2.212factory.com
DOES NOT HOST the domain name
Nameservers: ns3.212factory.com and ns3.212factory.com

=============================

That was the conventional way of doing things. Since the latest versions of DA you can also use the Multi-Server setup for DNS and then it would look like this:

Enable Multi-Server and add the correct hosts to each server.

Server 1:
Hostname: da1.212factory.com
Hosts domain name 212factory.com
Nameservers: ns1.212factory.com

Server 2:
Hostname: da2.212factory.com
DOES NOT HOST the domain name
Nameservers: ns2.212factory.com


In either case ensure that you've added the A records for the Nameservers to the DNS and that you've registered your nameservers with the registrar.
