I have 2 virtual private servers which i got from cloudatcost.com with 2 static IPs for one server and 1 static IP for another.
I have installed windows server 2008 R2 on both of them. All I wanted to do is to make one as a webserver and the other as a email and database server and I waanted to use some free control panel to create websites and maintain them. But before doing that I need to setup DNS server and static IP setup which I am not aware of. Someone please help me directing in a correct path of how to setup a server with a domain name and allow it to point as a server for different domains I host in future. I am pretty new to this networking stuff. I am .Net developer please help.
Thanks in advance.
[1] First you need to acquire domain for which you will get various registrar.
[2] Domain provider will provide you control panel
[3] Login into Domain control panel and there you need to two step process.Here you need to take help of your Domain provider.
[i] Register Name server of your VPS.Keep IP of VPS, where you will host domain.
ns1.abc.com = IP of your VPS
ns2.abc.com = IP of your VPS
[ii] Point your domain to VPS
[4]Now you can host your domain on VPS. Global propagation will take almost 24-48 hours time.

I have a web server set up at home for hosting a web site and I bought a domain from NameCheap. Now I want to connect the two together. I watched a lot of tutorials and I can see that the most popular way of registering your server is with a DNS 'A record' by connecting to my IP address. The problem is that my IP address is changing every once in a while and I am not sure if this means that I have to make my IP static. Is that possible and how do I do that? Also, is this a good way of connecting my domain to my server or is there a better way?
It's possible, there are 2 options:
Call your ISP, and ask if they offer a static IP as an option for your service (depending on where you live, this could be expensive, and not available for home connections). Then point the DNS A to your new fix IP.
Use a service like "No-IP": In this scenario you have to associate a CNAME (instead of a A Record) to a subdomain from No-IP, and they will redirect to your home dynamic IP.
Now take into account, for those 2 cases, you'll need to forward that domain to your local computer using the function of DDNS of your router, plus another settings like port forwarding.

My domain register from godaddy site I don't know how to connect this domain form an azure server. I have added these DNS server names in godaddy.
ns1-03.azure-dns.com.
ns2-03.azure-dns.net.
ns3-03.azure-dns.org.
ns4-03.azure-dns.info.
Is it right or wrong? How do i manage my domain's DNS in Azure?
What it shows you by nslookup?
If you can see those NS code, yes right.
When your domain issued, you can see what name server(NS) using in your domain by nslookup or any nslookup web services.
Make sure, your domain issued, it would take times until get your domain more than 2days or less depends on domain service companies.
These NS value would print on your prompt or cmd querying domain.
ns1-03.azure-dns.com.
ns2-03.azure-dns.net.
ns3-03.azure-dns.org.
ns4-03.azure-dns.info.

If my university uno.edu has all public IP addresses and it wants to add a department as a DNS subdomain i.e. cs.uno.edu
Will it typically handle the subdomain itself on it's local on campus DNS servers?
Or will it register that subdomain with a registrar?
Also, will windows server handle remote internet DNS requests?
I'm asking because I'm trying to figure out how powerful windows server DNS capabilities are.
uno.edu/computer-science is not a subdomain, but a URL. A subdomain would be computer-science.uno.edu.
The DNS server of the top-level-domain edu will reference to the DNS server of your university (uno.edu) and that one manages all subdomains on an local DNS server (like the aforementioned computer-science.uno.edu for instance). However, it's also possible that your university does not host an own DNS server if they don't need to manage subdomains.
And yes, Windows Server can certainly handle remote requests.

I brought few domain names from a domain register in my Country. So yea they manage the domain like change DNS etc. Is there a way that I can mange my own DNS.
Example:
Domain Register (DNS) points ---> DNS Manager Service (This is where I will manage the DNS) from my side. It will like a redirecting DNS just like we redirecting websites from one domain to another.
Hope you understand what am trying to say here. I don't whats its called. Did Google but even a clue what am looking for.
Thanks
You need a managed DNS service.
There is a nice list on wikipedia
Once you acquire one of these services, you will inform your domain register to point to the managed DNS site. Any request for your domains is forwarded to the managed DNS site. You will use a control panel on the managed site to further forward to your final destination (rented cloud server, server at home, construction page, etc)

New to Server Administration, we all have to start somewhere.
I have been using shared hosting for years but i am trying out a VPS.
I purchased a VPS for 4 months trial with a single IP
Installed Webmin and Virtualmin on the server.
I have several domains with 123-reg.co.uk and godaddy.com but hosting with another company.
I want to leave the domains managed by these companies but change the hosting to my new VPS on SOME domains.
Now the VPS does not have a domain attached and only has a single IP
So my question, how do I configure domains so I can change the nameserver to point to my new server? (Setting up a DNS Server) as you would for any hosting company.
Regards
Jamie
You need to set up an A record on the domain to point to your VPS IP address.
In 123-reg go to 'manage domain' and you can edit the DNS records there.
Edit: if your VPS host provides DNS hosting then you can point the nameservers to them but as you said you want to keep the domains managed by the domain company then follow my suggestion above.
