Vanity Hostnames & cPanel Problems

Posted on July 25, 2013

Hi to everyone,

I just create my droplet, and I just configure it, I follow the guide from Digital Ocean to get my vanity hostname, I do it with noticiasgam.com (I got it on Goddady).

On cPanel I have activate Bind, and Edit the DNS Zone of noticiasgam.com to have the 3 A record with the 3 NS records (also on digitalOcean DNS records)

It works perfectly on that domain, but when I direct another domain (cuponice.net) to this server and I ping to cuponice.net it said “ping: cannot resolve cuponice.net: Unknown host”. I done this 36 hours ago. It usually takes 1-2 hours to do this, I just modify another domain to my actual server and it’s working.

Also I create an account in the cPanel for noticiasgam.com (because it’s also a webpage) and I try to connect via FTP and I can’t ‘ftp.noticiasgam.com’ not resolving…

Any idea? Thanks for everyone Best,

Did you set up glue records for NS4.noticiasgam.com and NS5.noticiasgam.com? You can do that at Godaddy, make sure you set them to your droplet’s IP address.
