[Kronan]

TIA

Okay, what exactly can we help with?

Do you have nameservers already? Do you wish to set them up? Can you give us a little more info?

Dear bakedjake,

I read your other thread about setting up DNS. I am totally new to this.
I like to use ns.ns1.xyzzz.com and ns1.ns1.xyzzz.com as 2 name servers. So I went to godaddy (my registrant) and add
ns.ns1.xyzzz.com ip xx.xx.xx.xx
ns1.ns1.xyzzz.com ip ****.xxx.xxx.xxx
So I believe I have registered with internic for these 2 names so the world will know them

1. Do Ineed point the www.xyzzz.com's DNS to ns.ns1.xyzzz.com and ns1.ns1.xyzzz.com? Or I can still use www.xyzzz.com's old DNS, which is totally different DNS, like ns1.webmasterworld.com and ns2.webmasterworld.com

2. I have linux and plesk. How do I use plesk to set up the 2 name server? (sorry this is a too basic question but I am really new to this. Thanks!)

Thanks,
