Do you offer dedicated IP's for each of your resellers?

No I dont give away ip's,There only for name server and there is a fee and other reason is for ssl.
Other's might ;)

So when I set-up nameservers what IP will be assosiated with it?

I charge a few dollars extra for dedicated IPs because this way, people looking to cut down their costs can have the option of not having a dedicated IP.

The ones that you assign to them for their name servers. :)

Usually these are unused ip addresses.

Ok lets say I have 6 IPs, and I'm only using 4 for myself...Can you set-up multiple nameservers on the same IP? Is there anything wrong with that?

Can you add IPs using WHM?

How does this work?

I think you may have problems having multiple nameservers on the same IPs.

Thank you...I figured out what to do...

Hey... no problem. ;)

We offer them for a few $ a month. We don't give 'em away anymore.

I think that is the common trend these days. Everything is moving to name-based.

We do with no problems.

Well I guess it can be done... We have just had problems with clients registering nameservers with the same IPs as other nameservers...

Maybe it depends on where they register them?

Not sure. We acquired a Hosting Company that had their own nameservers, so we switched the IPs to match ours. This was through Verisign, I haven't tried other registrars, but not too many allow mass changes through a host record like that.

From what I understand, GoDaddy won't let you register nameservers if the IPs you want to us are already used by other nameservers...

I'm sure it is different with other registrars...

That's a really bad policy, but I'm sure they did it for a reason I guess. Wonder what is was. :)

It would defeat the purpose of having a secondary name server.

I'm not sure what you mean. If an ISP has ns1.domainx.com and a reseller has ns1.domainy.com pointing to the same IP, it should be allowed.

:D :D

Yes we do offer free IP's( static) for our resellers, you can retrieve 5 IP's every two hours once you become a customer from our automatic IP request system.

So the math tell me that you can have 60 Ip's every single day.

Hi Jorge,

Dedicated/static IPs means that once they're assigned to a site, they never change. I think what you're describing is a *dynamic* IP, which is fairly useless for anyone who needs an IP address to connect to their sites.

Personally, with all of the problems I've had with DNS name resolution over the years, I'd never host anything important without a Dedicated, Static, Unchanging, Unyielding! IP.

No I think what he's describing is a method to obtain additional IPs (just like he said). Resellers want/need IPs for additional customers that need SSL for example. So if you need an IP address for a site you can go use his automated allocation system and obtain 5 at a time.

Perhaps I misunderstood, then. That's actually a rare and valuable service if it works as you say, labgeek.

What would the average going rate be for private nameservers and/or dedicated IPs?
