This is my first article after long time. I hope very soon I can publish more networking and server related tricks and topics in
this block.
Here we go with very short and effective article for changing Hostname and Nameservers of the server
Step 1. Change Server Hostname
# hostname anyname.yourdomain.com
Step 2: Change Hostfile
Use any editor I used nano
# sudo nano /etc/hosts/
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain 54.xxx.xx.151 anyname.yourdomain.com 10.0.0.10 anyname.yourdomain.com anyname ip-10-0-0-10
Step 3: Change Network Config
# sudo nano /etc/sysconfig/network
HOSTNAME="anyname.yourdomain.com" NETWORKING=yes NOZEROCONF=true
Step 4: Change Nameserver IP’s of Cpanel Server
sudo nano/var/cpanel/nameserverips.yaml
-- ns1.yourdomain.com: 54.xxx.xx.151: 1 count: '14' zones: anyname.yourdomain.com,domain2.com,ns1.yourdomain.com$ ns2.yourdomain.com: 54.xxx.xx.151: 1 count: '14' zones: anyname.yourdomain.com,domain2.com,ns1.yourdomain.com$
Final Step will be register your nameserver IP’s with your domain registrar and use your own nameservers.
