several websites and dns on a single droplet

Question

Hello guys I have a droplet and I intend to put some site hosted on it, but each with its respective DNS and do not intend to use WHM / CPANEL. How can I make this setting only using bind or the DNS configuration of digitalocean is possible?

Thank you.

You do not need to install a DNS server on your droplet, you can use DigitalOcean’s DNS Nameservers for free. Have a look at How To Set Up a Host Name with DigitalOcean | DigitalOcean.

I have 3 diferents websites in the same droplet how can i configurate each DNS to each website?

Ex:
101.101.101.101/site1 (www.test.com)
101.101.101.101/site2 (www.test2.com)
101.101.101.101/site3 (www.test3.com)

DNS only handles mapping a domain name to an IP address, while your web server handles mapping a domain name to a specific directory (e.g. test.com to /var/www/site1). See How To Set Up Apache Virtual Hosts on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS | DigitalOcean.

The Apache web server is the most popular way to serve web content on the internet. Apache has the ability to serve multiple domains from a single server by using a mechanism called "virtual hosts". If a virtual host is configured correctly for each domain, the web server can correctly route traffic to the appropriate files based on the domain name requested. In this guide, we'll demonstrate how to configure Apache virtual hosts on an Ubuntu 14.04 VPS.
