Hey guys,

I have a win2k3 box with managed.com. I wanna set up DNS and name servers on it so i can point more domains to it and perhaps even resell the space. How would i go about doing it ?

I have already made mydomain.com point to my box and set up the domain host info with my registrar so that it is set to ns1.mydomain.com with one of my box's ip's and ns2.mydomain.com with another one of my box's ip's.

Now i have absolutely no idea what to do in the windows box. I have so far managed to remote into it, and thats it.

Any/all help will be appreciated :)

Thanks

Abdullah

If your DNS is installed, just go to the DNS add forward zone, key in your domain name abc.com, then after creating, click on abc.com, right click properties, u can add Host, Cname etc. Hope this is not confusing.
