How are you dealing with remote domains and cloudflare

    Hey there! That seems like the right method, actually - adding all the IP addresses for all the remote nameservers that you plan to support. For a shared server, many hosts just force the user to use a certain nameserver, restricting how many IPs need to be added. If you allow users to choose their own nameserver, that will definitely make administration of this option more complicated. For dedicated and VPS machines, I just turn this option off since I figure those users should know what they are doing.

    I suppose, but, it seems like, if the owner of a domain has gone out of their way to point it to my server, the server should acknowledge and accept it. Current methodology means I have to either: a) force a customer to use my nameservers (cPanel) which either isn't an option for many (policy, lack of record support, etc) b) have a manual interaction based on client frustration via my helpdesk to then have to add ips Neither are good options. It would be wonderful if the dev/product team would *consider* a tweak setting permitting domains that point to the server. Get Jesse on it, I know he's itching to write some feature code =)
