Hello all I installed ISPconfig using the perfect setup for Centos 5.3 i386. The system is working just fine but I have a question about DNS since people tell me that one of my sites cannot be seen. I set up my main site which is showing and went to name cheap.com (domain registrar) and set up DNS there pointing to my outside IP address. Within name cheap itself now I have: ns1.MyMainDomain.com ns2.MyMainDomain.com My main domain name & ISPconfig can now be reached all over the world Problem (maybe bacause I am new to ISPconfig & stupid) I created a new client --> Website and set up DNS within ISPconfig itself like so: Server: Server1 Domain (SOA): AnotherDomainHostedOnISP.com IP Address: ISPconfig's outside IP address Under options: Name server 1: ns1.MyMainDomain.com Name server 2: ns2.MyMainDomain.com Now, I can see both websites using their domain names from my main PC connected to the same router as the server. My client (a lady across the city) said that she received this error on her browser: "The web address you have entered could not be found." My friend across the world says that he cannot the new website either. They can both see the main site. Do I need to set up name servers within namecheap.com all pointing to the same outside ip addresses? Like: Domain 1 ns1.domain1.com = 25.369.98.63 ns2.domain1.com = 25.369.98.63 Domain2 ns2.domain2.com = 25.369.98.63 ns2.domain2.com = 25.369.98.63 Or is the problem that DNS servers update at different times all over the world and that is why I can see it from here (cable connection) - I can see it from a neighbor's DSL connection across the street & my customer & friend in the UK cannot. Please help ... I am at wits end
It can take up to 72 hours until DNS changes propagate so this could be the problem. If it still doesn't work, I suggest you check your domain names at http://www.intodns.com/
