Parked Domain DNS Requirments

In order for a Parked Domain to be available by browser (eg; http://Your_Domain.com), It must have a DNS A-Record pointing it to the server. As we Run Dedicated DNS Servers THIS IS NOT an action that you can do from your Control Panel.

If You Set the Domain to Use Our Name Servers: Then we manage the DNS Records on your Domain.   if you Have a VDNS Account you can add the Domain to the same IP Address as your Primary Domain Points to.

Otherwise please contact our Support Department by emailing Support@nivacity.com and simply say: “Point the Domain: Your_Domain.com to the server” (Provide the domain you added in the control panel and the Primary Domain on your account).

If You Manage your DNS Records at Your Domain Registrar or Else Where: add A-Records Pointing the Parked Domain to the same IP Address as your Primary Domain Points to.
