Hello, If you are using the box to host virtual servers, then yes the name servers need to be be IPs. However, if you are using the box as a freeVSD enabled name server, then the PrimaryNS and SecondaryNS need to be FQDN's.
If you are using the box as bothen then you need to specify FQDNs at configure time, and then add the IPs of the name servers to the vs_create command. Hope that makes sense. Damion.
