SC__Programmer Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Can i set up my own nameservers? Kinda like ns1.mysite.co.cc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krydos Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Yeah you can. You just need a server running a name server such as bind or nsd. Check out http://www.nlnetlabs.nl/projects/nsd/, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIND, http://www.isc.org/software/bind, and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NSD if you're curious to read more about it.

Guest Geoff Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I would recommend djbdns to their security guarantee versus BIND, which is known to have security holes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krydos Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 http://cr.yp.to/djbdns All I see is "access denied" at that link. Maybe this is the right link? http://cr.yp.to/djbdns.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krydos Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 ok well i download BIND,but how do i set it up? It depends a lot on your operating system. What OS are you running?

Guest Geoff Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I would NOT recommend running a server on windows, you will be sorry when your computer gets hacked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
