In this article, we will show you how to setup reseller accounts with their own private name servers like ns1 and ns2 for their own clients in WHM. Resellers can also have their own private name servers for their own clients making the server provider more anonymous and the reseller more credible.

We assume that you have already setup your resellers account and that you want to just add private name servers for them. To set the private name servers

What You Need is

2 free IP addresses
WHM root access to the server

Setting it up in WHM

Now that the name servers and IPs are registered we need to set them up on the server.

• Login to your WHM account as root.
• Click on Reseller Center on the left hand side.
• Under Edit Reseller Privileges/Nameservers, select the reseller account you want to provide with private name servers.
• Scroll down to the very bottom of the page until you see 4 entry boxes and it reads: Primary Nameserver:

See the below image, click for enlargement

• In the Primary Nameserver field enter: ns1.clientdomain.com
• Click “Assign IP Address“
• Click “Add an A Entry for this nameserver“
• In the Secondary Nameserver field enter: ns2.clientdomain.com . Now, repeat steps 6 and 7 for the Secondary Nameserver.
• Click Save
• Write down your resellers IPs and what name servers they belong to, on WHM click on Manage Nameserver IPs to view all name servers running.

Register the name servers, have your reseller login to your domain management page for the domain you registered and  register ns1.newdomain.com and ns2.newdomain.com as nameservers (registries normally have a special facility for doing that). The registry may also have a facility to propogate these nameservers around the foreign registries – if so, you should use this facility.

These registrations may take a few days to propagate (often as many as 3 days).

Your resellers can now have their clients enter ns1.clientdomain.com and ns2.clientdomain.com helping your reseller look more professional and keeping them anonymous from you.
