creoline DNS Server

What is DNS?

The DNS (Domain Name System) protocol is a key component of the web infrastructure and serves as the Internet's phone book: Every time you visit a website, your computer performs a DNS lookup. Complex websites often require multiple DNS queries before they load, so your computer may perform hundreds of queries per day.



Configuration

Configure your DNS settings so that the IP addresses 5.1.73.73, 5.1.73.74, and 5.1.73.75 are used as your DNS servers. If you choose our DNS service, your server services will perform all DNS lookups via creoline.


The creoline DNS service is only available for creoline servers.



Setup for Linux

To set this up on Linux, you must edit the /etc/resolv.conf file. To do this, use the text editor nano, for example, with the command: nano /etc/resolv.conf.


# /etc/resolv.conf

nameserver 5.1.73.73
nameserver 5.1.73.74
nameserver 5.1.73.75


A maximum of three nameservers can be defined in resolv.conf. If you add additional nameservers, they will be ignored and not used for DNS resolution.
