Hi,

I followed the FAQ to setup a virtual site with my raq which I have from rackshack, but after following the little FAQ they have the name servers for the virtual site wont delegate. I'm a little confused on the whole process for setting up a virtual site basically..can anyone give me a link to a detailed HOWTO or explain?.

Thanks

You have your DNS set up properly, right? :D

Yeah

But when setting up a virtual site and delegating rackshacks name servers to use with the site, shouldnt there be a frontend to add the zone records to rackshacks DNS?

I've delegated a domain to use rackshacks name servers and i've added the virtual site on the rack..and it's been longer than 3 days still the domain is coming up non existant

Go to Rackshack.net, then member area ('Members'), then 'DNS Configuration', then 'Add a Domain to DNS'I've delegated a domain to use rackshacks name serversWait a sec... Did you mean subdomain (like sub.domain.com) or domain (like domain.com)? If the latter, you don't have to delegate it. You need to change registration record of domain.com to point to Rackshack's DNS.

I meant domain...thanks for your reply, I got it sorted. Just using Rackshacks DNS for now. I'm hoping to setup my down name servers soon.
