Setting Up Your Name Servers
The process for setting up your name servers depends on the company you bought your domain name from. Check with your domain name registrar for specific instructions.
The default nameservers for your hosting account depend on the day you set up your hosting. Use this list to determine your default nameservers:
- After March 11, 2008
- ns51.domaincontrol.com
ns52.domaincontrol.com - September 12, 2007 – March 10, 2008
- ns43.domaincontrol.com
ns44.domaincontrol.com - January 31, 2007 – September 11, 2007
- ns5.secureserver.net
ns6.secureserver.net - November 15, 2006 – January 30, 2007
- ns1.secureserver.net
ns2.secureserver.net - December 15, 2005 – November 14, 2006
- ns3.secureserver.net
ns4.secureserver.net - Before December 14, 2005
ns1.secureserver.net
ns2.secureserver.netOR wsc1.jomax.net
wsc2.jomax.net
NOTE: Remember that it usually takes about 4-8 hours for .COM and .NET domains and about 24-48 hours for all other domain extensions before name servers on other networks are able to access the information after the central registry gets it. This period is referred to as the propagation period.
