Hello,

i am a bit confused about Dns, i have 2 box the first box host the domain.com where i use this domain.com to register ns1 ns2 ns3 ns4 at my registart, the second box use the ns3 and ns4 nameserver hosted on the first box, now i want know if my first box go down also the secont box go down?


Also if i have registert the nameserver at my Registart (Onlinenic) ?


Is yes what can be a good solution to keep all my server online also if the one with the ns go down?


thank you

if you have the ns3 and ns4 hosted in the first box. If the first box goes down, the second box is also goes down.

Because if someone try to ping the secound box domain, it will contact the first box for the ip address. Since the first box is down. it will not provide the ip address to the request. Which makes the second box to be inaccessable.

To solve the problem you may want to setup the nameserver on the second box for its domain.

Hope it helps

So u mean that i need to register a new domain and use it on the second box? but dont look professional so i will never use ns1 2 3 4 5 6.... and i will need to register a new domain for evry box

this is the same also if i register the nameserver at my registart?

Sorry, I was wrong. You can setup the ns1 with one server IP address and NS2 with other server IP address. If the first one goes offline. NS1 nameserver will be queried.
