International Domain Names

[ShelaghG]

Are there any issues around hosting international domains on WHM/Cpanel?

I have never heard someone (at least lately) report problems with international domains.

There are small issues with SOME of them...

For example, .DE domains require that the 2 nameservers NOT be in the same IP block ( or so my clients tell me ).

.CH and .IS domain name require registration of hosting company with the NIC before the NIC will allow to change the nameservers. However, you only need to do it once for every nameserver and it is totally free.

South African .co.za domain names also require reverse DNS for name servers. That means a dedicated IP for each name server -- no IP address sharing for name servers.

But all of these are really not CPanel limitations, rather strictness from the relevant registrars to do things by the book. We are running ns1 and ns2 on different boxes on two different continents. The few .de domains on our servers are 100% happy
