Yes - that should work. I'm about to make that change to bring back our site. 2 on one name server, 2 on another.

- zuccs 12y agoCool. Do you need a provider that supports 'zone transfers'? Or is that only to keep things in sync automatically?

- zuccs 12y agoDo you know of any providers that will work nicely/automatically with DNSimple?
- toomuchtodo 12y agoI don't unfortunately.
- dbrgn 12y agoDNSimple does not currently support zone transfers (see http://support.dnsimple.com/articles/master-slave-support/ http://support.dnsimple.com/articles/master-slave-support/), but you should write an e-mail to the support (address is on the linked page) requesting it :) With dozens of domains, managing multiple DNS servers is a pain. Zone transfers make this very easy.
- robvolk 12y agoI replicated our DNS on DNSMadeEasy, which I've used in the past on a very high-traffic website. They have an incredible track record for uptime. And they're really cheap. We manually exported our DNS configuration from DNSimple as a single file and imported it to DNSMadeEasy. Pretty easy transition, although we have to make future changes in two places. I set 2 nameservers on the old host and 2 on the new, and am keeping that configuration for automatic failover in the future. The DNS propagated fairly quickly and our site was up and running for many users within an hour. Glad that's over with.
