Name Servers in Admin panel
« on: October 22, 2020, 11:01:46 PM »
What Name Servers in Admin panel should I use?

I am hosting my oun CWP panel. I have hosted my own websites on a windows IIS box for 20 years and now switching them over to a Linux server and using CWP. All domains are registered at GoDaddy and I have always used there DNS.

So now I see CWP is asking for Name Servers, and at go daddy my 5 websites have different name servers. So what I am asking is what is the best way to set this up? do I make CWP my own Name Server? any impute on this would be great.

Thanks, John

The principles are exactly the same, or did someone else set up your Windoze box?
Either you locally manage DNS on CWP and you point the domains to at least two of your nameservers, or it's done at the various Registrars and you replicate to CWP.
Not any different to IIS.

on IIS I dont do anything. I just add the website...any dns is just for the local Active Directory Domain. all web dns is at Goddady. so to see CWP wanting name servers and it generate so much dns record info when I ad a site its very new to me.
