Cloudmin Services Client - Hostname and NS records

Submitted by mbakop on Sun, 11/27/2011 - 09:19

I have set up the Cloudmin services client on a system managed by Cloudmin. The master system also hosts the DNS. After creating a virtual server the DNS zone is created on the master DNS as expected.

But the NS records are same as the hostname of the master system. So is it mandatory that the hostname of the server hosting the DNS be something like NS1.foo.com ? If not where does one set the value to be used for the NS records of a domain.

Closed (fixed)

You can control the hostname use in the NS record, by logging in Webmin on the master system at going to Servers -> BIND DNS Server -> Zone Defaults and editing the "Default nameserver for master domains" field.

This can't be changed on a per-domain basis though.
