I have today done a fresh install of ipsconfig on karmic koala as per the perfect install howto. I'm having a little trouble getting started to be honest. I want to be in the situation to run my own name server on this machine and host a couple of domains on it running different sites. I have a domain that wish to use as the name server domain which is registered with fasthosts/ukreg. I also have a couple of other domains that I wish to host on my own server. I have a static IP address which forwards all http traffic to my server that has an internal lan static IP. From what I understand, if you have ispconfig up and running then you already have a dns service running? I'm just not quite sure where to start. Should I start with the DNS name server problem or the adding of sites? Any help or pointers much appreciated.
These tutorials are for ISPConfig 2, but they should give you the idea: http://www.howtoforge.com/ispconfig_dns_godaddy http://www.howtoforge.com/ispconfig_dns_providerdomain_schlund
Ok I think I got that done alright. I'm just waiting now for the registrar to glue the records. In the mean time, I have added a site and ftp'd some content into it. How can I navigate to the content through a browser?
The schlunde method was most similar to my registrar fasthost/ukreg and it seemed to work well. There is another issued I have with .com domains but I've started that in another thread.
Having used the schlund method on ispconfig3, using ns10.schlundtech.de as the secondary name server, i found on ispconfig the field 'Allow zone transfers to these IPs (comma separated list)'. I presume I have to put in here the ip of the secondary name server? How do I find this out?
