Hello,

I want to all the details about registering nameservers in cPanel? I have updated IPs in all domains, Now I want to update in the domain. Can anyone tell me how to do that step by step?

Do we need to create account for every domain in WHM?

    Hi Mirza

    Many ways to do so depending on your set up. Before I start typing thousands of lines about it that might not even help you, let me know what your set up is.

    & I know what I am doing too boot! I built this hosting company for a client not too long ago

    Usually that is done through the domain registrar. If you registered your domain with your hosting company and it's shared hosting, contact tech support. Otherwise, you'd have to let me know the platform, cpanel version, hosting type, etc.

    Yes, everything depends on your hosting provider and the cPanel they use.

    Below what I quoted came from WHM Initial Setup

    To configure a nameserver:
    • Select the nameserver software you would like to use, or disable local nameservers by clicking the corresponding button.
    • Important: Read through the advantages, disadvantages, and notes before making a decision. The BIND nameserver software will be adequate for most servers.
    Next, you will need to choose nameserver domains. You will need to add these at your domain registrar before they will work.
    To add nameserver domains:
    1. Enter the first nameserver into the Nameserver 1 field.
      • Most nameservers follow the naming convention ns1.example.com and ns2.example.com, where example.com stands for your domain name.
    2. Enter the second nameserver into the Nameserver 2 field.
    • If possible, you should add nameserver domains to the Nameserver 3 and Nameserver 4 fields. Configuring additional nameservers in this way will improve uptime if anything should happen to the first 2 nameservers.
    The last step in configuring your nameservers is to add A entries for your nameservers and hostnames. A entries are records on your server that resolve domain names into their corresponding IP addresses.
    To add A entries:
    1. Click the Add "A Entries" for all Nameservers checkbox.
    2. Enter the IP addresses for each of your nameservers.
    3. Click Add "A Entries" for Hostname if you would like to add an A entry for your server's hostname.
    4. If you clicked the Add "A Entries" for Hostname checkbox, enter the IP address for your server.
    5. Click Save & Go to Step 5.
    • You may go back to Step 3 by clicking the Go Back button.
    Hope this helps you.
