http://serverfault.com – I'm having some trouble with a VPS setup and DNS errors. Here's my current setup: I have set up a WHM, under the name control.companyname.co.uk (anonymised). The hostname of the WHM is set to control.companyname.co.uk. In WHM, the A record for the host name is set to my server main IP. In the domain control panel, I have the root A record for companyname.co.uk pointing to the WHM server's IP. I also have the A record for control.companyname.co.uk pointing to the main server's IP. In addition, I have spoken to the domain company and asked them to configure two nameservers on the account. So n (HowTos)

I've been trying to figure this out for a while. I've been googling but I couldn't really figure it out.

I am trying to setup DKIM for email verification and have been asked to add a public key to my DNS.

I have my domain name pointing to my personal web server at my static up and it is hosted through apache.

I want to send bulk domains from my vps for a domain(cagetur.com) hosted in another company. The company(cagetur) will go on using the old hosting account for its mailing operations.

The vps will just be used for smtp for once a week. I created an A record "vps.cagetur.com".

A client currently has emails such as:

user@uk.domain.com

they have these two A records (among others, to different IPs):

uk.domain.com mail.domain.com

pointing to the same IP address.

There is only one mx record - domain.com --> mail.domain.com

I believe they are on an exchange at the moment, whether that makes any difference.

Hi, I had testing setup zimbra mail in my vps with a real domain and successful.

Hi there !

We have a dedicated server (CLOUDLINUX 6.4 x86_64 standard) with WHM 11.36.1 (build 6).

When i tried to install SPF record on a domain (using command /usr/local/cpanel/bin/spf_installer username), it changes the A records to that main server IP address.

We have many domains that have WWW record pointing to other IP address than the main server.

How can we workaround this ?

I have two domains: 'example.com' and 'elpmaxe.org' and a server - 'server.example.com'

At the moment the mail for 'example.com' is hosted elsewhere so I have set up postfix, dovecot etc to be able to host email on two domains.

I have a new Virtual Private Server from GoDaddy that uses Plesk 11 control panel on a Windows Server 2008 operating system with 2 IP addresses.
