link a domain to a dns service like zonomi.com
create 2x a "A record" at the domain zone containing the IP of the server that hosts your Interworx panel
Fill in those 2 A records at the 2 nameserver fields.
Still the same error. Dont know how to fix it.
i assume at your domain registrar you created two name servers both same ip,
you then added the two name servers as the ns(s) for your yourdomain,
you then created a zone file with the following NS info:
when you test your dns at:
http://intodns.com/ or http://www.dnsinspect.com/
you see this warning "All nameservers on the same network"
No Work Around Fix For This, You Need To Get a Cheap VPS to Use as 2nd NS Server
Best to buy 2 VPS and use them as DNS servers (vps's not in same datacenter)
or
Use a Free DNS Hosting Provider Like "zonomi.com"
don't forget to add the name servers to your domain at your registrar.
Don't do any of the following:
Do not use your web server as your only dns server
Do not use 2nd ip on same server as 2nd NS
Do not use your home as 2nd dns (i did for a few months - not a good thing to do)
Do not use your hosting provider as dns if all name servers are in the same datacenter
Why:
If the server fails, DNS lookups from either IP address will fail
All your emails will fail "in and out" even if email is on another server
All domains you are hosting and/or pointing to will fail
Also if you are hosting for others, a client may sue you if your dns fails, the chances of that are remote
