Linodes DNS on cPanel

networking

I am trying to find a way how to utilize linodes nameservers on cpanel.

I have done this:

http://library.linode.com/web-applicati … l/centos-5">http://library.linode.com/web-applications/control-panels/cpanel/centos-5

I would like to use ONLY cpanel to serve the DNS zone for my domains.

In cpanel I am creating new account when in same time cpanel will create DNS zone for domain with ns1 …. ns4.linode.com

I don't want use Linode DNS Manager to double the zones.

is this possible ?

It's not possible server your zone(s) from ns1…ns5.linode.com from your cPanel without creating the zone(s) in either the DNS Manager or using the linode API. Linode's DNS needs to know what slave zones its authoritative for and the master(s).

As I see it your choices are:

1) Server your DNS zone(s) directly from 2 or more of your nodes.

2) Use Linodes DNS to slave your zones from your node using cPanel and some API interaction.

3) Provide your own custom DNS portal using the API.
