How to add SRV record in my Cpanel

Hi,
I want to add a SRV record to my domain for my MS-Windows SBS 2008. I tried to search in my domain control panel but I didn't find anything. Please find the attached file a snapshot of my Cpanel.

And what is WHM (Webhost Manager) and do I have one like this.

Thank you in advance,

CPanel is normally used for public web services. Why would you want to add service records for SBS to a public DNS service?

If it's service records for some other reason I'd start with Simple DNS Zone Editor and see what it gives.

All it gives A record and CNAME

Figures.

You'd need the Advanced DNS Zone Editor, which apparently is only available in 11.25 and above. If you're running that version I could not tell you why you don't have it.

It's difficult to tell from the documentation if it'll even let you were you able to find that applet.

I would have to go back to the beginning and ask why you want to create service records for SBS on cPanel :)

Hi,

I believe you can add CNAME records instead of SRV .Sometimes DNS provider will not support SRV records. In that case you must use a CNAME record. I have added CNAME record instead of SRV for one of my client.
