Basic Nameserver Setup
I've got a new dedicated server and am confused as to how to set up my nameservers with CPanel/WHM.
Scenerio: there are 3 domains/sites and 3 IP's: site1.com, site2.com, and site3.com.
Wouldn't the domain used as nameserver (ns1.site1.com) need to use an external nameserver so the other sites can resolve it?
In Manage Nameserver IP's, is it looking for something like ns1.site1.com?
What are the basic steps to set this up within CPanel/WHM?
When I need to set up site2.com's website with a New Account, will the NS record automatically be added to the nameserver?
thanks for any help...

Kinda confused on what you need help with, but. You need to know your server name. if it's host1.site1.com then the nameservers need to be ns1.site1.com & ns2.site2.com.

Don't worry about the other sites.
hostname.site1.com 111.111.111.111
ns1.site1.com 111.111.111.111
ns2.site1.com 222.222.222.222. (Of course these are the IP's you have to your server.
