Resolved - DNS Cluster
ServerSharp
Member, Host Rep
Hello,
Can somebody link me to a guide on how to create a DNS cluster using 2 Linux VPS's please as nameservers? Basically what I want to do is set up 2 VPS's (one for each nameserver) and allow them to sync with each other.
Thanks

If you want to use PowerDNS then you want a master / slave setup like this:

Web interface:

That's what I was looking for, thanks.
To confirm: I'd install the master on ns1 and slave on ns2 and they could sync together and act as a DNS server for my site..yeah?
Cheers
I believe so, come to think of it SolusVM has a powerdns guide with MySQL replicating the records:
http://docs.solusvm.com/powerdns and should work standalone and then use it with PowerAdmin if required
Thanks, looks like what I need
How about http://atomiadns.com/ ?
Atomiadns is used by EDIS maybe they can said how it is
Another project is nsdmin and im waiting for source
Will use PowerDNS
Looks good
was going to use poweradmin
You can also use Webmin/Bind, it has the easiest replication and master/slave setup. Just a few clicks
In PowerDNS I have the options of adding a master zone and adding a slave zone. How would I get the master to sync with the slave?
Nevermind. Closed.
The webmin option doesn't look bad actually. How would I get them to sync with each other though if I had webmin installed on both ns's?
@dominicl
Bind9 + rsync + LEB (<256mb) = win
You'll probably want to use rsync via cron and reload named after
