(WHM) Primary Resolver and Nameserver confusion
Okay,
I know generally how the internet works but here I am confused. Every website that I've worked on prior to this had a vendor providing Nameserver services -Meaning that I just pointed my DNS to their server and they do the rest.
Now, I am confused by what the Primary Resolver is supposed to point to. I am supposed to use WHM as a private nameserver but then does the Primary resolver point to itself? That doesn't seem right. Do I have to set this up? Can I remove it?
Say for example I have a website named: FatUnixGuy.com and I have two fixed IP addresses reserved for this at 192.168.22.10 and 192.168.22.11

Hi all,
Does someone use this kind of config on /etc/resolv.conf?
search domain1.com domain2.com
nameserver 1.x.x.x
nameserver 2.x.x.x
nameserver 3.x.x.x
nameserver 4.x.x.x
Is that going to work properly?
I heard that only 3 lines are enabled on resolv.conf. Is that true?
Thanks! (1 Reply)
