Thank you for that link
I learned much from it.
but one thing is still unresolved for me and i am looking for some help
about it.
I can set those domains' DNS that i want to host them in my dedicated
server , to point to my own server.
now what should i do then ? should i install a DNS server on my server ?
thanks
