[ubuntu-uk] ubuntu-uk Digest, Vol 62, Issue 44

Sun Jun 13 13:20:33 BST 2010

That's a bit of an open ended question. Running a name server is pretty straightforward it's just a matter of running bind and configuring it but like learning apache and how to set that up, it's another whole new world.

Do you have a domain name already? Most registrars offer domain name services as part of registering the domain with them. In which case it would be a matter of entering the IP of you apache server in their control panel.

You can of course do it yourself. You will need a minimum of two separate name servers, ideally on different networks.
