Hello, I just bought a new VPS and had a debian system running on it.. I am completely new to the linux and want to run my websites on this server.. Now my hosting provider dont give me the nameserver which i can use to point my site, they said i have to create my own in the VPS box. Now can someone please tell me how can i create the nameserver (ns1.mydomain.com) and point my sites to them? what i have done here is , edit the /etc/resolv.conf file and add this line nameserver xx.xx.xx.xx but it didnt work.. Thank you very much
