 | View Full Version : nameserver question Dead-Soul 10-23-2002, 06:45 PM is it a must to have 2 nameservers to host a website like when i put the ns1 in domain configuration do i need a second one or will 1 be enough? DD-SNC 10-23-2002, 06:47 PM You will probably need two if you are registering a domain. There are some company's that offer free domain parking. Ask around. Dead-Soul 10-23-2002, 06:51 PM i wanted to host it myself but only have 1 ip i can get my domain registration place to register the name server for me but i got one ip address so only 1 name server will be made thats y i asked IGobyTerry 10-23-2002, 09:13 PM Try out a service like zoneedit.com. You put in your IP there, and they give you their nameservers and their IP at your registar. cedwards 10-23-2002, 09:55 PM yeah you need the two ips to register two name servers and yes you need two name servers. I suggest using zoneedit.com or somthing. LinuXpert 10-23-2002, 10:17 PM You can register your own nameserver with 1 IP and use zoneedit.com as slave nameserver cedwards 10-23-2002, 10:19 PM looks to me everyone points you at zoneedit lol so i say go there man. jgriff64 10-24-2002, 01:01 PM Dont some Registrars allow you to register more than one nameserver on a single ip now? I have heard of people doing this but never done it myself. Kind Regards LinuXpert 10-24-2002, 01:09 PM Yep, with Enom you can register more than one nameserver on a single IP. jgriff64 10-24-2002, 01:31 PM Thanks for confirming that NetworksData. I was sure I had read some where that most do now. At least you have confirmed one of them does. Regards LinuXpert 10-24-2002, 01:55 PM This issue has been discussed recently.
