Hi,
Sorry if this question is a duplicate but I’m very confused and tried finding solution online and testing for a few weeks already.
This question deserve a thread because it’s a VPS server by a new provider, and they don’t have a KB on it.
I bought a VPS server from let’s say ABC provider.
the server is at server.domain1.com with IP1
the domain1 is at godaddy
On Godaddy, I have added 3 hostnames
server.domain1.com
ns1.domain1.com
ns2.domain1.com
all pointing to IP1
then I changed the domain1 nameservers to
server.domain1.com
ns1.domain1.com
ns2.domain1.com
Then on virtualmin, I have added a master zone with the following setting
A record :
domain1.com
server.domain1.com
ns1.domain1.com
ns2.domain1.com
NS record :
server.domain1.com
ns1.domain1.com
ns2.domain1.com
Name alias record :
www.domain1.com
I’m aware that if on Digital Ocean, I would need to point domain to their nameserver, but I have consulted my VPS provider, they said to point to VPS IP. Thats all, nothing more.
But the problem is when I visits the domain, it showed DNS not resolved. What have I done wrong?
Please help.
