Servers
From
the main Reseller panel , click the "Name Servers"
icon.
The
Name Servers feature allows you to create nameservers for your
customer's web sites. For
example, our customer (Username: gary) wants nameservers for his own
domain (garys-domain.com). That is, he wants to have
ns1.garys-domain.com and ns2.garys-domain.com in his domain record
instead of the Reseller's name servers.
Creating
Name Servers
First,
choose two IP addresses to put the name servers on. There are only
two restrictions when choosing IP addresses:
1)
You cannot assign a name server to a server-owned IP (e.g. the first IP
address in the table above)
2)
You cannot assign a name server to an IP already associated with another
name server
In
the above example we selected 66.51.122.138 and 66.51.122.139, but we
could have used .133 and .136. It does not matter if the IP is
owned by a different User, because web sites and name servers are
completely seperate.
After
you have checked the two IP addresses in the far-right column, select
the customer's domain name from the dropdown box at the bottom of the
table. Then click the "Create Nameservers for" button.
This
is what the table looks like with the new nameservers we added for our
customer:

Note
that the IP addresses for the nameservers still have "free"
status, so you can use these IPs for hosting other sites.
Deleting
Name Servers
To
remove nameservers, place a check in the far-right column next to the
nameservers you want to delete and then click the "Delete
Nameservers" button. If you delete your own nameservers, you
can always create them again through this menu.
Warning:
Deleting your own nameservers may cause your site and the sites of your
customers to stop working.
