How can I connect domain to aws whm – CPanel

I have a domain bought from GoDaddy. I have set the custom name servers this

ns1.domain.com
ns2.domain.com

and set hostname

ns1  52.70.xxx.xxx(aws ip)
ns2  52.70.xxx.xxx (aws ip)

As I have installed WHM in my amazon aws instance. so In WHM, I have created an account and then went to Edit DNS Zone and added A records. These are my settings there

enter image description here

But I don’t see my domain working and I am not able to see Cpanel of the domain as well.

what am I missing?

    Are you using Nameservers for domain.com that are ns1/2.domain.com?

    If this is the case the domain will not be able to resolve without adding the ns1/2. as “Child Nameservers”.

    You can create that for your domain through GoDaddy https://uk.godaddy.com/help/add-my-own-host-names-as-nameservers-12320

    Alternatively – you can post your domain so we can troubleshoot it if it’s a DNS issue.

    Please follow these steps to integrate your domain into whm and create a cpanel.

    Create an account in WHM by going into Account Functions->Create Account: enter your domain here

    Go to DNS Functions->Edit Dns Zone and click your domain and add A records

    Then Go to Godaddy or any Company where you have purchased your domain and edit the name servers. For example if the nameservers you set in whm dns were ns1 and ns2 then same add here(e.g godaddy). In your case it would be 

    ns1.domain.com
ns2.domain.com

    Click Manage hostname in Godaddy and add 

    ns1  52.70.xxx.xxx(aws ip)
ns2  52.70.xxx.xxx (aws ip)

    Your domain should be working here. But If still It didn’t work then
    Check if ports(2087,2083,53,2095) are open. Check it from the terminal 

    nmap -Pn -sT 172.31.iphere --reason -p 2087,2083,2095,53

    If any port is closed. Open it from the aws by going into Security Firewall.

    Please note, 2083 and 2095 will always show as closed from external port scans as these ports are only opened publicly based on valid sessions established from within the cPanel server.

    Verify again if your DNS port is opened

    nmap -Pn -sT 172.31.iphere --reason -sU -p 53

    After opening all the ports rebuilt your DNS configuration on the server by typing these commands on the terminal

     cpanel root@9449099 /var/named]cPs# cd /etc
 cpanel root@9449099 /etc]cPs# mkdir /root/cptechs
 cpanel root@9449099 /etc]cPs# mv named.conf /root/cptechs
 cpanel root@9449099 /etc]cPs# mv rndc.* /root/cptechs
 cpanel root@9449099 /etc]cPs# /scripts/rebuilddnsconfig

    Hope it helps
