  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.
  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.

Vanity name servers, I think?

New Pleskian
Hello,

I'm setting up Plesk on a VPS. Let's say my web hosting site is webhost.tld. I'm trying to accomplish the following:

a) Have users who go to http://webhost.tld see the web site I set up in Plesk. I understand that in shared hosting, you go to the domain registrar settings and enter the web host's provided name server addresses, usually two of them. Is this the same for Plesk on a VPS?

b) Have users who do a WHOIS search on webhost.tld see the name servers as ns1.webhost.tld and ns2.webhost.tld.

c) Have users who do a WHOIS search on any web site hosted by webhost.tld see the name servers as ns1.webhost.tld and ns2.webhost.tld.

I suppose these are all related. How do I do this? Instructions or a documentation/tutorial link would be much appreciated. Thanks!


Newb Background:
I'm a web designer and currently I host many of my clients' web sites through a reseller shared hosting account. I'm now trying to set up Plesk on a VPS, and once set up this will be what I use to host web sites. Sorry for the newb question but I couldn't find the answer. Perhaps I wasn't using the right keywords...
 
Cereal,

You implement nameserver registrations from your domain name registrar and NOT from Plesk.
