Hi, I have installed Virtual multi-server environment from tutorial on http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual-mu...th-ispconfig-3 is working fine I plan to add 2 or 3 more servers to my existing Dedicated Server and want to use same NS1 & NS2 which I have added for my Server Set-up My existing Server has 6 IPS & are used as under Type: Node Hardware: Dedicated Hostname: root.example.tld 192.168.1.1 Type: Container Hardware: Virtual Hostname: web.example.tld 192.168.1.2 Type: Container Hardware: Virtual Hostname: mail.example.tld 192.168.1.3 Type: Container Hardware: Virtual Hardware: Virtual Hostname: mail1.example.tld ( One extra Mail Server) 192.168.1.4 Type: Container Hardware: Virtual Hostname: ns1.example.tld 192.168.1.5 Type: Container Hardware: Virtual Hostname: ns2.example.tld 192.168.1.6 my "resolv.conf" looks like as under; vi /etc/resolv.conf search example.tld nameserver 192.168.1.5 # ns1.example.tld nameserver 192.168.1.6 # ns2.example.tld nameserver 8.8.8.8 # google Public DNS vi /etc/hosts looks as under 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 192.168.0.100 server1.example.com server1 192.168.1.5 ns1.example.tld 192.168.1.6 ns2.example.tld Should I make /etc/hosts for 2nd server to work under same ns1 & ns2 as under?; vi /etc/hosts (Server 2 which to be added to same network) 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 192.168.0.200 server2.example.com server2 192.168.1.5 ns1.example.tld 192.168.1.6 ns2.example.tld Thanks & regards, Abin
Just add the additional servers in the same way that you used to add the existing ones. You can add new servers at any time to a ispconfig master, just ensure that the hostnames of the new servers are resolvable at install time by either adding them to the hosts file of the slave and master or by adding them to the namserver that is authoritive for that zone.
