Hello fellow ISPConfig users! I'm new to the whole ISPConfig thing. I've used cPanel and WHM in the past, but i've "retired" from the webhosting bit, and i only use my servers to host Minecraft + some friend's websites. Now, I've installed ISPConfig using this (Norwegian) and it seems to be working. Now to the problem; My domain is hosted with Domainnameshop.com and i'm hosting the server from home. I would like my domains (listed under) to be pointed to the server running BIND and ISPConfig so that i can use it for hosting them. - example1.co.uk (primary) - otherdomain1.org - otherdomain1.com The server's hostname is server.example1.co.uk. The thing is, how the hell do i setup the nameservers and that to point to server.example1.co.uk? I've tried to add A-records in ISPConfig for the nameservers (ns1.example1.co.uk, ns2.example1.co.uk) and then using ns1.example1.co.uk and so on as nameservers for the domains. The only thing it shows me then is that it can't find ns1.example1.co.uk, do i have to wait a couple of hours to find it? Because when i go to it, it displays the default ispconfig webpage.. Could someone point me in the right direction here please? Edit: example1.co.uk is used for hosting stuff too, are there anything else i have to do then? - Michael
If you use ns1.example1.co.uk for the example1.co.uk domain, you must set up glue records: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_Name_System#Circular_dependencies_and_glue_records These tutorials (although for ISPConfig 2) should give you the idea how to run your own nameservers: http://www.howtoforge.com/ispconfig_dns_godaddy http://www.howtoforge.com/ispconfig_dns_providerdomain_schlund
