Hello, One of our vendors is using Plesk to host a project for us. They tell me we must update our domain, at the registrar, to use their nameservers .
I would like to retain control of the nameservers for this domain, and just point the relevant hosts (www, etc.) to the IP address of his server (via the convenient web interface our nameserver provider provides).
Might there be some restriction in Plesk that all domains hosted via their account require the use of one, perhaps hard-coded nameserver -- the one they want us to use?
This from the manual:
"Through Plesk, users can manage DNS zone settings, if permitted."
Does 'users' above refer to the vendor, or his clients (us)?
Does Plesk use standard Apache name-based vhosts - so that this would work?
They provided me the IP address of their server, but after setting our DNS to point to it, I receive a page that says 'sorry - access forbidden' which seems to be a non-standard Apache error, and may just be the default page for an un-configured vhost.
Are they correct (I must use their nameserver), or is the vhost just not configured? The server is running Apache/1.3.29 (Unix).
Thanks for any info,
