    Hello,

    I have right now the following two DNSs:

    dns1.mydomain.com
    dns2.mydomain.com

    For resellers, I need to have different DNSs... the only way is to have VMs (or two more servers) with their own IP?

    Thanks

    Do you just need different DNS hostnames (like ns1.resellerdomain.com and ns2.resellerdomain.com) or totally different DNS servers?

    In the first case you just need to create A records for ns1.resellerdomain.com and ns2.resellerdomain.com that point to the IP addresses of dns1.mydomain.com and dns2.mydomain.com and then use ns1.resellerdomain.com and ns2.resellerdomain.com in your reseller's DNS zones.

    Thanks falko, the problem that I have, is that I registered at nic.ar my IPs as dns1 and dns2 .mydomain, and I can't the use a different hostname with the same IP. I don't know what to do with nic.ar :p

    I really don't want to use another two servers...

    thanks!

    Ok, that's a problem. If nic.ar doesn't accept this, you need two different IPs... :(
