Can I Disable the DNS Module?

I am looking for a good control panel for a webhosting server that I will be migrating to Digital Ocean. I currently have a separate mail/dns server running Mail-In-a-Box, so I don't require DNS to manage domains.

How would that work with the Vesta Control Panel?

Just don't use it! You might also want to remove the firewall rule which opens the DNS port (53) to the public.

If your nameservers are pointed elsewhere, then that's where DNS lookups will be performed.

If you install a new VestaCP, you have the option of not installing Bind, with the --named no option. But as its already installed, you might as well just leave it.
