Need help setting up additional sites (WHM/cPanel Droplet)

Posted on August 1, 2018

Hi,

I have my droplet with WHM + cPanel running all fine for the main website at this domain. I have tried to create an additional cPanel account for the new domain and website. Both are using the same IP Address.

I have uploaded a load of files but the domain does not resolve? (ERR_NAME_RESOLUTION_FAILED)

The NS have been set to ns1.whmdomain.com and ns2.whmdomain.com as it said when I was creating the account in WHM.

If anyone could be of some assistance that would be great.

Thanks, Dan

Hello,

cPanel has a built-in DNS manager. You can find how to setup the nameservers here: https://confluence2.cpanel.net/display/CKB/How+to+Set+Up+Nameservers+in+a+cPanel+Environment

Once you have done that, you can give your clients your own nameservers. Your clients will use the DNS manager in cPanel to manage their DNS records.
