How Can I configure the droplet to server DNS at Cpanel/WHM level

Posted on April 21, 2020

I have installed Cpanel on our digital ocean droplet and also created NameServers pointing to the droplet’s IP. However, after adding a Cname to one of our client’s domain, I realized the DNS is not reaching to the Cpanel’s DNS configuration. I don’t want to point our client’s to the digital ocean’s DNS which will make it difficult to manage many accounts in the long run.
