Check the miHosting DNS for cPanel and DirectAdmin servers and learn when you should install them on your domain.
Introduction
For a domain to work with miHosting, it must use the correct DNS. These nameservers tell the internet where the domain DNS zone is managed and allow website, email and other services to point to the right server.
DNS for DirectAdmin servers
If your hosting runs on DirectAdmin, use:
ns1.mihosting.com - 176.9.140.9
ns2.mihosting.com - 5.9.242.206
DNS for cPanel servers
If your hosting runs on cPanel, use:
ns1.mihosting.net - 168.119.175.59
ns2.mihosting.net - 154.53.57.255
ns3.mihosting.net - 154.53.45.255
When you should install them
You should use these DNS when you want your domain to point to miHosting and the DNS zone to be managed from our servers.
This usually applies when:
- You have ordered a new hosting service.
- You transferred or registered a domain to use here.
- You want to manage
A,CNAME,MXandTXTrecords from the hosting panel.
Conclusion
miHosting DNS depends on the server type where your service is hosted. Confirming this before changing nameservers helps you avoid mistakes and makes the domain setup much smoother.
