Thanks for the info.

Just added new nameservers sucesfully. Used James procedure with NS1 and NS2 records.

if you have ns1.yourbox.ext and ns2.yourbox.ext and they both dont return any errors at intodns.com if your name servers are directed properly then in your other sites domain manager you set your name servers to the ones you have created your box must have dns entries for the domains you want to host once the domains are pointed to it, this is so that it can redirect your users to the right place on your servers if your using something like cPanel on your server then creating dns entries will be a breeze it usually creates your SOA records NS CNAME and A/AAAA Records for you when you setup domains but unless its a windows box then cPanel will be pretty costly if you want a full license

I think that a small detail needs to be clarified. I have a reseller account at a different company and my domain name is bizxtech.com and I have zone entries for custom nameservers ns1.bizxtech.com and ns2.bizxtech.com these will never work as nameservers on godaddy for a domain registered there for instance bbbb.com.
You have to follow these directions add ns1.bbbb.com and ns2.bbbb.com in the host summary with the ip addresses of the nameservers you want to use.
Then you can set your nameservers to ns1.bbbb.com and ns2.bbbb.com but ns1.bizxtech.com and ns2.bizxtech.com will not work.
That’s how I got it to work, anybody else have a better solution to this nameserver validation failure with the error message “nameserver not registered”?

Oh My Goodness. What an interface failure! GoDaddy’s user interface is horrendous.

Thanks!

Actually I worked it out.

You just go to any domain, add the custom name servers to the Host Summary. You will get a message saying it could take 48 hours. You will also get an email saying same thing. Even though they are added they don’t actually display. But if you try and add them again you will get a message saying they already exist.

Then you just add them as the DNS for any domains you want.

Takes a little longer to see the changes come thru but it works.

Several domains can point to same nameserver. But that DNS nameserver must have all the domains configured properly. This DNS server can be on your own dedicated server or your hosting providers server. Its entirely upto you, how you want to set it up.
