New resolvers for DIY Servers

If you have a do-it-yourself server (VPS) with us, you need to switch to our new resolvers before 31 March 2023.

As part of our improvement efforts, we will change the resolvers for our Do It Yourself (VPS) platform on March 31, 2023. If you have a Do It Yourself server, you need to check which resolvers your server is using and ensure it is using our new ones by March 31. You can already make the change now.

Our old resolvers have IP addresses 91.201.61.0 and 91.201.61.1, respectively. These will stop working on March 31.

Replace these with 46.16.239.35 and 193.180.19.35.

If you want to use IPv6 instead of IPv4, use 2a02:28f0:0:239::35 and 2a02:28f0:101:1::35, respectively.

You can read more about how to do this on different platforms below. If you have any questions about the change, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Linux

Edit /etc/resolv.conf with any text editor. Change the lines:

nameserver 91.201.61.0
nameserver 91.201.61.1

To instead be:

nameserver 46.16.239.35
nameserver 193.180.19.35

If you see nameserver 127.0.0.1 in /etc/resolv.conf, you have some service on the server that is handling lookups. You should then check which nameservers that service uses and make changes to that service’s configuration instead of /etc/resolv.conf.
