Setting up a public static IP address for my authoritative DNS server to resell domains [closed]












1














I want to start reselling domain names (ccTLD) and to be able to become an authorized reseller for .MA domains I am required to have my own DNS server (according to ANRT-The regulatory agency for .MA domains). I bought an IBM workstation and bought a public static IP from my ISP. I am still confused on how to set up the static IP on my router and how to do port forwarding as I am new to the Huawei routers configuration panel. Also, when I set up a local static IP on /etc/network/interfaces the ethernet connection stops working. And finally, when I install net-tools the ethernet connection stops working. Please help me and thank you.



PS: I am using PowerDNS on ubuntu 18 LTS; and my router is Huawei B612s-25d



Edit: To avoid any confusion, I have the server on our office, not home. We already have 2 nameservers in the US but in Morocco we are required to have at least a third nameserver dedicated to reselling the Moroccan ccTLD. We don't have any choices in Morocco but to host the DNS ourselves.

  • Are you sure you only need 1 nameserver? Really, you should not be setting up this kind of infrastructure on your home system - why not use some low end cloud hosted BMs which will be more reliable and not have routing issues?

  • You may find that your ISP dynamically assigns your IP address, but if not, you really need to solve this with them, not here.

    As worded, I think this post is out of scope because it is looking for support of a commercial activity and shows a massive disconnect between ability and requirement. It may be more appropriate if you edit your request to focus on running a nameserver rather then advising the why and wherefor of your business requirement.

    To reiterate @davidgo's comments... I think you have a lot of learning to do before you should even contemplate "reselling domain names"... If you're providing a service like this, then you need to know what you're doing - don't play / experiment / learn with other people's domains.
