Zone Edit/DNSMadeEasy instead of DA ns

[satoshi]

Hi,

For one of our VPS, I don't want a dns server running on the VPS itself...I only want to use an external service like Zone Edit or DNSMadeEasy. That will apply to all the domains.

I want it setup so that when a new domain is added for a given user, it correctly maps that domain to an ip allocated to the user, but that's it...I don't want DirectAdmin running an unused dns server.

How do I go about doing this and what should I disable?

Stop named.

You also need to remove it from the list of services that DirectAdmin will automatically try to restart, to avoid a message being sent to the message system (and perhaps email) every minute.

When you use DirectAdmin to stop a service it removes it from the list.

You're right of course; I didn't think

That happens sometimes.
