DNS Configuration for ThetaJoin Servers
The Domain Name System, or DNS, is used to map server hostnames to IP addresses. ThetaJoin can provide and manage this service as part of hosting your Drupal website on our servers.
When you registered your internet domain name, there was a place to enter the DNS or nameservers that store the IP address for your ThetaJoin servers. There are too many domain registrars to provide exact instructions on how to enter this information.
ThetaJoin has two ways to manage your DNS for your servers:
- DNS with Enterprise Email Services
- DNS without Enterprise Email Services
DNS with Enterprise Email Services
If you have Enterprise Email Services with your hosting plan, it's required that ThetaJoin manage your DNS for you so you can have all the power of Enterprise Email and ThetaJoin Hosting. Enter the following two nameservers into your registrars domain configuration:
- ns1.messagingengine.com
- ns2.messagingengine.com
DNS without Enterprise Email Services
If you don't require Enterprise Email Services, ThetaJoin can still manage your DNS for you. Enter the following two nameservers into your registrars domain configuration:
- dns1.stabletransit.com
- dns2.stabletransit.com
Changes to the DNS system can take anywhere from a few minutes, or up to 24 hours. Changes need to propagate across the entire internet.
Note: You can still manage your own DNS if you'd like. ThetaJoin will provide you with the public IP address of your server.
