How to set up Nameservers? #
Available Options #
- %name%.sites.zorrito.store (Recommended over FreeDNS, request via Discord)
- Your own domain
- FreeDNS (Not recommended)
Root Domain Method #
To set up nameservers for a root domain (e.g. yourdomain.com), here are the generic step to change your nameservers for your domain.
- Log into your domain registrar
- Navigate to the domains list
- Select your domain
- Switch to custom name servers
- Replace all nameservers with ns1.de.zorrito.store & ns1.de.zorrito.store
- Now wait at most 48 hours for the nameservers to propagate around the world.
That’s it! Now you can wait until it propagates. You can check here at https://dnschecker.org/ns-lookup.php
Once it has been verified, in the meantime, you can set up your site on our panel.
Subdomains method (NS Records) #
If you do not have your own personal domain and are on a tight budget, you can use a subdomain from places such as https://freedns.afraid.org
You must create the following NS records:
- @ NS ns1.de.zorrito.store
- @ NS ns2.de.zorrito.store
The @ stands for your domain or a subdomain from your domain or a subdomain from a provider such as FreeDNS.Afraid.Org
NS means the type of record – name servers in this step.
ns1.de.zorrito.store and ns2.de.zorrito.store are our name servers.
That is it! You have set up your name servers for your site. #
If you are using FreeDNS, you must wait 60 minutes for the records to propagate. Usually up to 48 hours for root domains.
