nameserver question
| Posted by Aenarion, 03-14-2008, 04:51 AM | | Hi,
I want to purchase a VPS plan and I got a question about the nameservers. I got a domain name and I can get a VPS plan. I m just thinking that if I want to buy a second VPS plan do I need another domain name?
More or less I m thinking to have 3 VPS servers, does this means I need 3 domain names?
Can i use something like subdomain per server or alias?
I got my domain with namecheap.com
thanks

You can use like ns3.yourdomain.com and ns4.yourdomain.com for the 2nd vps, etc....

ns1 and ns2.yourdomain.com for the first vps
ns3 and ns4.yourdomain.com for the second VPS
etc...
You will just have to configure the IP's and the basic setup on the VPS that is hosting DNS for the domain
