manually created DNS records being overwritten with template ones - kingxerxes - 02-02-2010 11:46 PM
hi there,
I have installed webmin on my ispCP box so that i can manually modify MX records for some domains as mail for these domains needs to go to a different server. i have also manually created some A records for these domains.
the problem is that whenever i create a subdomain through the control panel, all the changes i make are lost as the default domain template is reloaded.
is there a way to stop the template being reloaded every time, and if not - is there another way to create and modify these records?
i am running version:
ispCP 1.0.2 OMEGA
build: 20090821
Codename: Priamos
thanks a lot!

You have to copy the files from /var/cache/bind/domain.tld.db to /etc/ispcp/bind/working/domain.tld.db (for each "domain" in your server). Remember to re-copy after modifying the zones through webmin.
Alternatively, you could try to hard link the files. I'm not sure if this will work without any drawbacks though...
