Hello all,
Got a total newb here to DNS. I've purchased the book DNS and BIND
from O'Reilly, and most of it makes sense to me. However, there is one
thing that has been bugging me, and it's that I can't figure out how
the life of me I am supposed to point registrar's to my domain name
server.
A couple of the DNS registrars I've worked with ask you for the hostname
of your DNS nameservers first (e.g. ns1.andyshellam.eu,
ns2.andyshellam.eu,) then they work out if they're part of the same
domain name (andyshellam.eu.) If they are, they then ask for the IP
address of the servers to
Blasted reply only goes to the sender... sorry, Eric. I use namcheap,
but suggestions are always welcome. Thank you all for the information so
far.

Some gTLD registrars (such as those for .net if memory serves correctly)
require your nameservers to be registered in a server registry (I think
OpenSRS or Tucows.) Some registrars update/maintain these entries
automatically, with others you have to request it.

To clarify, all gTLD
Actually, just found it - seems they added the feature to do nameserver
registration a short while ago. I don't remember it being there. For
future reference of any poor newbie sot who is searching for this in the
future, select the domain name and then select Nameserver
Registration Thanks
