Different Name servers for my resellers

C

Guest
I am a bit confused.

A, B, C are my resellers.


they have registered domains, a.com, b.com and c.com

192.168.224.001 is the ip for A
192.168.224.002 is the ip for B
192.168.224.003 is the ip for C

As they register domains through me, i register their name servers as follows:

ns1.a.com and ns2.a.com are set for 192.168.224.001
ns1.b.com and ns2.b.com are set for 192.168.224.002
ns1.c.com and ns2.c.com are set for 192.168.224.003

now its obvious that they will set those name servers to their respective ns systerms.

Is this thing possible?

if yes, how? what extra settings i might have to do? (other then giving them permissions for DNS management)
 
Chipmunk,

I’m going to take a stab at this:

You said that:

A, B, C are my resellers.

And

they have registered domains, a.com, b.com and c.com

192.168.224.001 is the ip for A
192.168.224.002 is the ip for B
192.168.224.003 is the ip for C

As they register domains through me, i register their name servers as follows:

ns1.a.com are set for 192.168.224.001
ns1.b.com are set for 192.168.224.002
ns1.c.com are set for 192.168.224.003

BUT, you did not mention their ns2. Records? They should be something (using your example that is) like this:

Ns2.a.com are set for 192.168.224.004
Ns2.b.com are set for 192.168.224.005
Ns2.c.com are set for 192.168.224.006

AND all of these IPs would point to your server by the collocation facility and added to your Plesk Control under Server Management.


At this point, your box is running one name server system isn’t it and wouldn’t it be unnecessary to have the resellers touch your dns at all? Also, when you add or added a.com and b.com you would have selected a static IP as opposed to using the shared or one of the shared IP s in the list.



Someone help me here because I’m talking out of the side of my head here and hoping to learn something from this…
