    Hi guys,

    I have a website currently on a webhost and I'm planning to transfer that site to a server that I just built configured with ispconfig. However, I'm a little unsure of how to do that on ispconfig. I'm still going to be using the dns nameserver of the webhost and have the webhost deal with the registrar for the domain name.

    The webhost only gave me the dns name servers and the domain secret eep code.

    I'm assuming that all I need to do is listed on this page here:
    http://badbison.com/ispconfig3/my-first-site.html

    but it doesnt seem to mention the eep code at all? Am I missing something important here?

    Thanks

    The domain secret is needed only if you want to transfer a domain from one registrar to another. In your case you just have to change DNS records so that they point to the new server.

    so basically just do what was on that linked page from my first post?

    Sounds good, thanks!
