Yes, you can use Farbyte's DNS infrastructure with any of our VPS packages.
The number of domains and DNS records you can create may be determined by the the VPS package you are currently subscribing to.

In order to administrate your DNS, login to the Farbyte VPS control panel. The URL for the VPS control panel can be found in your Farbyte VPS 'Welcome' email.
Your login credentials for the control panel were sent in your 'Welcome' email.

Once logged into the VPS control panel you can add a domain by performing the following:

  1. Click the DNS option in the top menu
  2. Enter the domain name in the Add New Domain textbox
  3. Click the Add button

Add DNS

After you have added the domain you should add the necessary DNS records by clicking the Manage button next to the domain.
Manage DNS

A common DNS setup might be:

  1. Empty A record -> IP. This will generate the main domainname.tld -> IP A record
    A record
  2. Empty MX record -> domainname.tld
    MX record image
  3. www CNAME record -> domainname.tld
  4. ftp CNAME record -> domainname.tld
  5. mail CNAME record -> domainname.tld
    cname record image
  6. Finally, you will normally want to set the domain nameservers with the regisrar to ns1.farbyte.com and ns2.farbyte.com
