Edit a DNS Zone

You must be familiar with DNS Zones prior to using this feature. To edit your DNS records:

Log into your WebHostManager

Click on 'Edit a DNS Zone'

Select the domain.

Make necessary changes and click 'Save'.

Your DNS records will look something like:

; WwwAcct 2.5
; Zone file for domain.com
@    14400   IN      SOA     ns1.domain.com. root.domain.com. (
                        1023925192      ; serial, todays date+todays
                        28800           ; refresh, seconds
                        7200            ; retry, seconds
                        3600000         ; expire, seconds
                        86400 )         ; minimum, seconds

mchost.com. 14400 IN NS ns1.domain.com.
mchost.com. 14400 IN NS ns2.domain.com.
mchost.com. 14400 IN A 123.123.123.123

localhost.domain.com.   14400    IN A       127.0.0.1

domain.com. 14400 IN MX 0 domain.com.

mail    14400        IN CNAME    domain.com.
www     14400        IN CNAME    domain.com.
ftp     14400        IN CNAME    domain.com.

When editing DNS Zones, be sure to never delete any periods or your domains will not resolve or function properly. We strongly recommend you to leave the settings untouched unless you are sure of what you are doing.

You may change where your email goes by editing the second "MX" 'domain.com' entry. Only use this if you are sure you wish to direct your email to another server that is ready to receive the email or your email will be lost!

We recommend that you replace any 'dnsrouter.com' entries with 'yourdomain.com' in order for your domains to resolve 100% for everyone.
