Hi there,

I'm wanting to set up a catch-all nameserver for my dedicated server running cpanel.

I have about 300 domains that all need pointing to the same place. I just want to simply change the nameservers and the domain be forwarded to the catchall account - no fuss adding them manually etc..

Anyone know if this is easy to do and whats the best way to going about it?

Cheers.

By the same place, do you mean the same IP address with separate virtual hosting accounts or the same URL?

Parked Domains are domains which point to a set location, and the cPanel parked domains script will setup the DNS entry on the server as it adds the parked domain, so I shouldn't imagine it's too hard to automate it.
 
I don't believe you can do this with bind. If you change the DNS server, cPanel will no longer be able to create/modify DNS zones for you.

My suggestion would be, as beansprout suggested, to use curl to add a parked domain automatically via cPanel every time one is registered.
