Search Again: Reverse DNS & Root NS Servers From: Jesse Proudman Date: Tuesday, October 28, 2003 Time: 9:43:33 pm I'm trying to setup a set of nameservers using the same IPs as an existing name server. What I want to do is in OpenSRS, set ns1.mydomain.com to the exisiting server ip and ns2.mydomain.com to the other existing server ip. That works fine. Then I will create 2 A records for ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com that point to those IPs. Then I will change the DNS on the domain in the roots from the old servers to the new ones. In Other Words: Exisitng: ns1.provider.com 123.123.123.123 ns2.provider.com 123.123.123.456 New: ns1.mydomain.com 123.123.123.123 ns2.mydomain.com 123.123.123.456 Now, 2 questions: 1) Will this create any problems? 2) Will this affect reverse DNS? My provider was thinking that my doing this, reverse DNS will be affected, but as far as I know from my use of QuickDNS, this won't affect Quick DNS. The only thing that should affect reverse is the arpa addresses... Right? Thanks -- Jesse Williams-Proudman Blue Box Development :: Custom Web Solutions +1.206.778.8777 :: jesse@blueboxdev.com
