    Default Allow Sharing Nameserver Ips

    In the WHM under Tweak settings there is an option:

    Allow Sharing Nameserver Ips

    Did this option mean that i can run 2 nameservers on 1 ip?

    Like:

    ns1.domain.com at 1.1.1.2
    ns1.seconddomain at 1.1.1.2

    Thank you for explaining.
    I did not think that this setup would be acceptable practice for production.
    Why use two nameservers on the same ip on the same server?
    I don't get it.
