Hi,

I'm trying to set up my vps host as an authoritative DNS server for my domain. It seems to be working for one of my IPs, but I'm not sure how to set it up to use both ips, appearing as a different server on each. I'm not new to DNS or BIND, but I've never tried this kind of configuration before. I've tried a couple of different things, but no luck so far.

I know this is a pretty common thing to do.
Could somebody give me some pointers?

Thanks,
dancran

Providing your DNS server is listening on all interfaces (which is the default setting) then both IPs will respond to dns requests.

If you have a specific problem, pop in a support ticket with details how we can reproduce it and we can take a look for you.

Also, you may wish to consider not running all your dns on your VPS. e.g. consider using our dns servers either as the primaries or using one as a secondary.
