Question tutorial setup dns slave using virtual min on ubuntu

Posted on October 31, 2013

I have a question about the following tutorial: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-setup-dns-slave-auto-configuration-using-virtualmin-webmin-on-ubuntu

More specific about the following part:

“You have to create Address records to have server1.example.com and server2.example.com as your server hostnames. Click on Show in the DNS section next to your domain. Click on Add a new A record and enter server1 in the Name field and 198.199.103.8 in the IP address field. Do this for server2 as well.”

Im not sure if I should use the IP-address of server1 or server2 for server2.example.com? So should it be like this: Hostname: server1.example.com IP-address server1 Hostname: server2.example.com IP-address server2 or like this: Hostname: server1.example.com IP-address server1 Hostname: server2.example.com IP-address server1
