Title: DNS
Post by: Jim on August 11, 2002, 09:48:39 PM
I’m hoping that someone out there uses “Custom DNS”, and “Secondary DNS” through DYNDNS.org for their SME server.
1)   (and bare with me, I’m new at this) Can I do this with one server?
2)   How do I delegate the DNS to DYNDNS’ name servers?
3)   Is there anything that I’m missing?

Summary:
     What I want to do is to be able to register a domain name and use something like ns1.mydoman.com, ns2.mydomain.com, etc.(The hard part, I think) and create a Virtual domain to point it there. (The easy part)

I do that for a client!

What is the problem with one server...

When you sign DYNDNS (and pay for it!) you is able to transfer your domain to them (point DNS servers of your domain to DNS server of DYNDNS!)

Here is my client DNS settings: (this was pasted from dyndns page!)
