RS 1000 G9 a1 and extern domain ?

  • Hi all. I am new to this and I need help.

    As the title of thread said I have Root Server 1000 G9 and I want to point my extern domain (from Namecheap) to my server.

    My server: Debian 11

    Apache2

    Webmin

    Apache virtual host : /var/www/myservername.com


    Any help or tutorial how to bind my extern domain with my server ?

    Thank you in advance.

  • Basically, you'd need to (1) instruct Apache to serve requests related to that external domain (e.g. by means of a VirtualHost definition via Webmin) and (2) look up which public IP addresses your server got assigned (here, ip addr show on the command line might help) in order to update the A (and maybe AAAA) DNS entries managed by Namecheap using their interface.

  • Go to namecheap and edit the DNS entrys;


    Code
    Host: *                       Type: A            Destination: YOUR-ROOTSERVER-IP
    Host: myservername.com        Type: A            Destination: YOUR-ROOTSERVER-IP
    Host: @                       Type: MX           Destination: mail.myservername.com
    Host: mail                    Type: A            Destination: YOUR-ROOTSERVER-IP


    A DNS Entry change can take till 48 hours, you can check the DNS entrys on "https://dnschecker.org/" if the IP is updated,

    you can check it on windows too


    Code
    > CMD - ping www.myservername.com


    if the IP adresse is the old you can type ipconfig /flushdns to clear your Cache on your Computer.
