help needed to configure new server
Hi,First I know I should contact my dedicated server supplier with this question, which I will do. But im in the UK and they are in the US - and their response time is not the best. It will take at least 24 hours for a response. I have waited over 1 week for it to be set-up already.
As this is the first dedicated server I have purchased I do not know how to configure it. Maybe someone can help. Here is the message that comes up when I access the address I have been told to.
Resolver Setup -
'Enter the ip address of at least two nameservers that you will use for dns resolution. If this server is acting as a primary nameserver, and you have enabled the nameserver under inital nameserver setup, you must enter your machines primary ip in the Primary Resolver box. If this server is acting as a slave server, you should enter the ip address of the master dns server in the Primary Resolver box. Expert users with a custom dns configuration may enter a diffrent value. If you do not know the ip address of your provider's local resolvers you should contact them. It is very important that these nameservers are correct, or you server will not function properly. If you do not know what to put in the boxes below and cannot contact your provider, please close this window and go though this setup at a later time; Your server should still function normally, however connections made to the server may be slower then normal.
Followed by these text boxes:
Primary Resolver :
Secondary Resolver:
Teritary Resolver:
I have a range of IP's given to me, should I just put the first IP in these boxes?
I really appriaciate any help.
