Name Server information
- Here is the Name Server information you need if you are registering a domain that we will host on our servers, or if you are switching a domain over to our servers.
Windows/ColdFusion/Railo on Windows Platforms: Primary Name Server: NS1.HOSTEK.COM 64.37.66.145 (if needed) Secondary Name Server: NS2.HOSTEK.COM 216.15.198.134 (if needed) Linux/ColdFusion on Linux/Railo on Linux Platforms: Primary Name Server: NS3.HOSTEK.COM 65.175.112.209 (if needed) Secondary Name Server: NS4.HOSTEK.COM 74.127.47.237 (if needed)
Name Server information (Resellers)
- If you are a reseller and want to provide your customers an alternate white label DNS, use this information, or create your own Name Servers as mirrors of either set.
Windows/ColdFusion/Railo on Windows Platforms: Primary Name Server: NS1.EZHOSTINGSERVER.COM 216.15.198.133 (if needed) Secondary Name Server: NS2.EZHOSTINGSERVER.COM 216.15.198.134 (if needed) Linux/ColdFusion on Linux/Railo on Linux Platforms: Primary Name Server: NS3.EZHOSTINGSERVER.COM 216.198.218.143 (if needed) Secondary Name Server: NS4.EZHOSTINGSERVER.COM 65.175.112.227 (if needed)

Custom Name Servers for VPS
Cpanel VPS
The best practice is to add custom Name Servers before adding domains to your cpanel VPS.
- Set DNS A records for each of the name servers being created, NS1.yourdomain.com and NS2.yourdomain.com to use the VPS IP address.
- Login to the cpanel WebHost Manager usually http://your-server-ip:2086
- Click "Basic cPanel & WHM Setup" and scroll to the bottom to view/set the "Nameservers".
- If you have already added domains to your cpanel server, edit each DNS zone setting any and all references for name servers to your new Name Server records, (ns3.hostek.com & ns4.hostek.com changed to ns1.yourdomain.com & ns2.yourdomain.com).
- SSH into your cpanel VPS and run this script to update cpanel so it will recognize your new Name Servers.
/usr/local/cpanel/scripts/updatenameserverips
- Register your Name Servers with the Cpanel server IP Address, at your registrar.
- Videos: Setting custom name servers for the most common registrars.
- If you registered your domain name with Hostek submit a support request for registering the Name Servers and reference this article and step.
- You can begin pointing domains hosted on your Cpanel VPS to use the custom Name Servers.
- See the latest WebHost Manager Documentation for any changes in steps 2-6.
Windows VPS
All our Windows VPS (ColdFusion included) will be equipped by default with our WCP (windows control panel) which includes integration with two of our own Name Servers. This way you will not have to install the DNS service on your own VPS server, saving bandwidth, installation and management.
- Set DNS A records for each of the name servers being created, NS1.yourdomain.com and NS2.yourdomain.com use the IP Address for the DNS servers (Primary and Secondary) listed in the "Site Details" area of WCP. To find the IP Address for your primary and secondary reference our Name Server information.
- Register your Name Servers with the IP Address for the primary and secondary DNS server in step 1, at your registrar.
- Videos: Setting custom name servers for the most common registrars.
- If you registered your domain name with Hostek submit a support request for registering the Name Servers and reference this article and step.
- You can begin pointing domains added through WCP to your custom Name Servers.
