Please note: If the IP of ns1 and ns2 are the same or point to the same server, there is a risk of failure IF your server is offline or something.
Final note: If you add any more sub domains to your main domain takeer.com, you DO need to add them in GoDaddy and in Sentora also. But ONLY for this one domain
Main Domain :
1. Log into GoDaddy / REGISTRAR Domain
2. Select your main domain
3. Click on 'Settings' if not already open
4. Scroll down to 'Host Names'
5. Click 'Manage'
6. Add Hostnames ns1 and ns2 both pointing to your server's public IP
7. Save and wait a couple minutes
8. Go to the Nameservers section (scroll up) Select 'Manage'
9. Select 'Custom' radio button
10. Click 'Add Nameserver'
11. Add your ns1.maindomain.com and ns2.maindomain.com
12. Also add your GoDaddy/REGISTRAR Nameservers and (ns##.domaincontrol.com)
13. Save and wait a couple more minutes.
14. Go to your addon domain settings
15. Under Nameservers select 'Manage'
16. Select 'Custom'
17. Add your maindomain.com name servers
18. Save and wait for propagation
Basically you need to make A records for ns1 and ns2 that point to your server's IP.
(xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx = represents your server's external IP.)
A Records to set at your domain REGISTRAR :
* xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 1 Hour
@ xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 1 Hour
mail xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 1 Hour
ns1 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 1 Hour
ns2 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 1 Hour
www xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 1 Hour
CNAME Records to set at your domain REGISTRAR:
panel @ 1 Hour
ftp @ 1 Hour
Now, by doing this, all your clients need to do is point their domains (@REGISTRAR panel) to your nameservers and then they can use Senotra's DNS and domain management features in one place.
addon/client domain :
- point their domains (@REGISTRAR panel) to your main domain nameservers and then they can use Senotra's DNS and domain management features in one place.
Client should setting only on setting at their Registrar panel? dont make any change at Sentora DNS panel?
