Nameservers - Domaint -> web server

5

It’s not clear what you want to accomplish, a single HestiaCP + DNS all in one, or a DNS cluster

The DNS setup is pretty straight-forward either way:

  • configure vanity nameserver at your domain registrar (ns1.yourdomain.com xx.xx.xx.xx [Hestia IP] )
  • make sure Hestia has the dns zone (domain) created and the corresponding record for ns1 is present
  • wait for DNS propagation max 48h

Yes, Hestia has support for DNS clustering. You need to setup a second Hestia server (add ns2 at your registrar and on first Hestia server)

  • Create a dns-cluster user on the slave Hestia dns server
  • Run the next cmd on the first Hestia server:
v-add-remote-dns-host yy.yy.yy.yy 8083 admin p4sw0rd # (admin pass on slave server)
