    I installed ISPconfig on suse 10 (64 bit) with perfect setup.
    The server is online with public IP.
    I see my webpage but if I try ping ns1.mydomain.xxx I get "unknown host"
    I have 1 IP for the machine, 1 IP for NS1 and 1 IP for NS2. They are all public IP.
    I added these IP in network card and also in ISPconfig under Management -> Server -> Settings -> tab Server IP list
    In tab DNS -> Default NS1 I added my IP for ns1 (and for ns2)
    Under DNS Manager I created the RECORD A (hostname ns1.wadnet.org - IP address my public IP for DNS)
    I created the record A for ns1 and ns2 but I cannot ping ns1 neither ns2
    where is my error? :confused:
    I need to ping ns1.mydomain.xxx and ns2.mydomain.xxx because I need to host several domain on this server, I try to register 1 domain but I failed because of this error of ns1 and ns2
    Thanks

    Can you post the real domain name here?
    I guess your ISPConfig server is not authoritative for the domain, therefore you must create the DNS records for the domain on another DNS server.

    the domain is www.wadnet.org
    where I muste create the DNS record?
    I have an other server with plesk as control panel and I always created the dns record in the same server not in an other. I haven't a dns server ...

    Ok, the authoritative name servers for wadnet.org are ns2.wadnet.org and wadnet.org so you must create the DNS records there. I guess one of these is running ISPconfig?

    Don't enter an IP address there! You must use an FQDN there.

    Corrected!

    Now i ping ns1.wadnet.org and ns2.wadnet.org but I still am not able to register the domain.it. I get this error:
    "Unable to verify the A record associated to the NS server NS1.WADNET.ORG" and I get the same error at dnsreport : "No NS A records at nameservers"

    In DNS MANAGER for the domain wadnet.org I created A record hostname ns1.wadnet.org - IP my public IP for dns (also for ns2.wadnet.org)

    So I think that the required a records must be create in server setting but I don't know where .....

    If you change something in DNS, it may take up to 4´8 hours until your changes where propagated to all DNS servers.

    OK ... I created the A records for the domain wadnet.org in dns manager 2/3 days ago, yesterday I change only the FQDN in Server -> settings -> tab dns ... anyway, I'll wait hopeful :)

    RESOLVED!! I find my error: I wrote in A record for the domain wadnet.org "ns1.wadnet.org" and this is wrong. I corrected the A record only ns1 and now it is all OK :)
