Very new... DNS and IP questions..

[kslagerman]

Hello,

I have read through the admin guide and mostly understand dns, but some of the sections are not quite specific enough for me to fully understand..

I have a domain registered with godaddy and it is currently up and running with a hosting company, however, I want to move the site to my own server.

I have ispconfig up and running fine. (i think)

All services (except pop3?) are reported as "online"

My main questions:
Under Management > Server > Settings > Server (tab)

For the IP Address, I am supposed to put my internal lan address (i.e. 192.168.1.150) and not my external wan right?

Do I need to put anything in the "IP List" area"

Secondly,
Under Management > Server > Settings > DNS (tab)

What exactly am I supposed to put in DNS1 and DNS2?


Third,
When I create a New Site in ISP Manager, in the IP address field, do I put the internal IP or external IP?


And Lastly,
Once I have done these things, will that be enough for me to go to my godaddy admin panel, change the name servers to my new name servers? i.e. ns1.myserver.com ns2.myserver.com ? Or is there more to it?


Thanks, sorry that was annoyingly long.

i guess a question of this caliber is undeserving of an answer... :cool:

There is a special tutorial for ISPConfog + Godaddy:

For the IP Address, I am supposed to put my internal lan address (i.e. 192.168.1.150) and not my external wan right?

yes.

Do I need to put anything in the "IP List" area"

no.

Secondly,
Under Management > Server > Settings > DNS (tab)

What exactly am I supposed to put in DNS1 and DNS2?

Your primary and secondary DNS server. These values where used as default when you create new DNS records.

Third,
When I create a New Site in ISP Manager, in the IP address field, do I put the internal IP or external IP?

The internal IP. Only for DNS records in the DNS manager you will have to use the external IP.
