in this post you provided. you will find this :

4 -> Add an "A" record for the nameserver (example is included as an attatchemnt )

thank you

ok sorry, not got the screen shot handy :D

for this example your CURRENT nameservers are (just replace these with your actual domains and IP addresses):

ns1.serverdomain.com | 111.111.111.111
ns2.serverdomain.com | 222.222.222.222

and you want your new nameservers to be:

ns1.domain.com | 111.111.111.111
ns2.domain.com | 222.222.222.222

1 go into admin panel

2 DNS administration

3 Select the domain "domain.com"

4 at the bottom of the page you willl see a section "Add Domain Records"

5 on the top line, in the first field (before the "A") type "ns1.domain.com" or the name of your nameserver nameserver1.domain.com
for example.

6 in the field to the right of the A type "111.111.111.111"

7 Click "add" to add the new record!

8 - repeat steps 5, 6 and 7 for ns2 using ns2.domain.com and 222.222.222.222

Hope this helps :)

thank you very much chris. does this apply to when i want more than reseller to use a virtual nameservers IPs while using their own domain name as nameservers ?

thanks a million :)

when the reseller requests personal nameservers on resellerdomain.com...

replace all instances of:

ns1.domain.com
ns2.domain.com

to

ns1.resellerdomain.com
ns2.resellerdomain.com

and go through the process again :)
