First, you’ll create two “glue records.” The purpose of glue records is to say that your box is becoming a part of the domain name system. These records go by different names at different registars, so also look out for “hostnames” or child nameservers. This will not be found in a DNS control panel.

A glue record has a hostname and an IP address. For historical reasons we need two glue records. The two records you need to create are for ns1 + . + your box’s hostname and ns2 + . + your box’s hostname. (They stand for “nameserver one” and “nameserver two”.) For the IP address, enter the IP address of your box.
