Hi,

I just transfered my forum to my new server, and need to know if i did the following correctly.

I have directadmin as controlpanel.

I've added two dedicated ip's in the IP manager. Then i added two A records, with the ip's from the ip manager at the DNS administration panel. Is that ok? The ip's still have the status "free" though...

DNS administration:
ns1.domain.com A xxx.xx.xxx.xx
ns2.domain.com A xxx.xx.xxx.xx
domain.com. NS ns1.domain.com.
domain.com. NS ns2.domain.com.

IP management:
xxx.xx.xxx.x1 free 255.255.255.224
xxx.xx.xxx.x2 free 255.255.255.224

Now the only thing to do left is to glue these ip's to the ns, at my registrar (godaddy).

It should work once you've set it correctly with your domain registrar.
You can always check if it's succesful by going to www.dnsstuff.com & do a DNS lookup.
