A couple of DNS queries with ISPConfig

Ok the situation is:

2 full public nameserver names that point to 2 of my public ip addresses (ie ns1... and ns2....)

Running a Debian 4.0 server as per the setup guide. Server set with 2 local ip addresses and using a Juniper netscreen I have mip the same 2 public ips to the local ips of my server and forwarded all the ports needed.

This is working because I can ssh and port 80/81 to my server using the public addresses.

I have a bunch of domains that I have pointed directly to my nameservers (ie my servers will handle all DNS for those domains)

So I added the site into ISPConfig and assigned it to the local ip address.

And that doesnt work.... if you do a nslookup to on www.chesterfieldathletics.org.uk it resolves to the local ip address of my server not the public one.

If anyone needs anything else let me know

Not sure I know what you mean....

So you would create the new site with the local IP and then go to the DNS-Manager and then change the IP to the public one in the tab "Domain" and "Records".

ok so now I get the shared IP error.

What causes this and how can I correct it

 

Ok scrap that last comment it looks like its working again.

Thanks
