<p>When you <a title="register domain name" href="http://www.whonami.com/">register a domain name</a> with us, we set it up on our parked nameservers so a temporary page displays when visitors go to your website. After you determine which hosting provider to use, you can change your domain name&#8217;s nameservers to remove the parked page and activate your domain name.</p>
<p>If you registered your domain name with another provider, you can still purchase a hosting account with us, use our Off-site DNS services, or use our CashParking® or Quick Content services. If you do any of those, you must view your nameservers in your account with us, and then set the nameservers with your domain name registrar.</p>

<div>
<div>
<p>If your domain name is registered with us, use the following instructions to update its nameservers depending how you use or host the domain name.</p>
<h4>To Set Nameservers for a Domain Name Registered with Us</h4>
<ol>
<li>Log in to your <a href="http://mya.securepaynet.net/default.aspx" target="_blank">Account Manager</a>.</li>
<li>In the <strong>My Products</strong> section, select <strong>Domains/Domain Manager</strong>.</li>
<li>Select the domain name(s) you want to modify.</li>
<li>From <img src="http://products.secureserver.net/products/domains/screens/nameservers.png" alt="" width="18" height="21" /> (Nameservers), select <strong>Set Nameservers</strong>.</li>
<li>Select one of the following:
<ul>
<li><strong>I want to park my domains</strong> — This option parks your domain name on our parked servers. When someone opens your domain name from a Web browser, our default parking page displays.</li>
<li><strong>I want to forward my domains</strong> — Use this option if you want to forward this domain name to another URL. See <a href="http://www.whonami.com/support/article.php?aid=422&amp;locale=en">Forwarding or Masking Your Domain Name</a> for more information.</li>
<li><strong>I have a hosting account with these domains</strong> — Use this option when your domain name is hosted with us.</li>
<li><strong>I have specific nameservers for my domains</strong> — This option indicates that you are hosting your domain name with another company (enter the two or more nameservers your hosting provider gave you), or you have custom nameservers you want to use for this domain name.<strong>TIP:</strong> For .com, .net, and .edu domain names, see <a href="http://www.whonami.com/support/article.php?aid=5948&amp;locale=en">Custom Nameserver Restriction for .com, .net, and .edu Domain Names</a> for information on using custom nameservers with these domain names. Likewise, certain country-code top-level domain names (ccTLDs) have specific requirements for their nameservers. See <a href="http://www.whonami.com/support/article.php?aid=6243&amp;locale=en">About ccTLDs (Country-Code Domain Names)</a> to find the Help article with the nameserver requirements for your ccTLD.
<p><strong>NOTE:</strong> You must enter at least two nameservers. After you set third-party nameservers and the DNS propagates, you can no longer manage your domain name&#8217;s DNS in our system and must contact your third-party provider to do so.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>(Optional) If DNSSEC is available for the domain name&#8217;s extension and the domain name is hosted with another provider, you can click <strong>Manage DS Records</strong> to set up self-managed DNSSEC. See <a href="http://www.whonami.com/support/article.php?aid=6114&amp;locale=en">About Self-Managed DNSSEC</a>for information.</li>
<li>Click <strong>OK</strong>.</li>
</ol>
</div>

<div>
<div>
<p>If you registered your domain name with another registrar but are hosting it with us, it must use our nameservers. We send you an email that lists your nameservers when you set up your hosting account. You can also use the instructions below to view the nameservers your domain name uses. Then, ask your domain name registrar how to set the nameservers with them.</p>
<p><strong>NOTE:</strong> If you cannot access the Hosting Control Center or have difficulty viewing your domain name&#8217;s nameservers, you can contact our support team for assistance.</p>
<h4>To Set Nameservers for a Domain Name Registered Elsewhere and Hosted with Us</h4>
<ol>
<li>Log in to your <a href="http://mya.securepaynet.net/default.aspx" target="_blank">Account Manager</a>.</li>
<li>From the <strong>My Products</strong> section, click <strong>Web Hosting</strong>.</li>
<li>Next to the hosting account you want to use, click <strong>Launch</strong>.</li>
<li>From the <strong>Settings</strong> menu, select <strong>DNS Manager</strong>.</li>
<li>Click <strong>change zone</strong>.</li>
<li>Select the domain name you want to use, and then click <strong>OK</strong>.</li>
</ol>
<p>Your domain&#8217;s nameservers display in the <strong>NS (Nameserver)</strong> section. You must provide these nameservers to your domain name&#8217;s current registrar.</p>
<p><strong>Example of Standard DNS nameservers:</strong><br />
ns01.domaincontrol.com<br />
ns02.domaincontrol.com</p>
<p><strong>Example of Premium DNS nameservers:</strong><br />
pdns01.domaincontrol.com<br />
pdns02.domaincontrol.com</p>
</div>
</div>
<h3 id="__display-auto-increment:2" title="offsite"><a href="http://www.whonami.com/support/article.php?aid=664&amp;locale=en#offsite">Setting Nameservers for a Domain Name Registered Elsewhere and Using Off-site DNS</a></h3>
<div>
<div>
<p>If you purchased your domain name registration with another registrar but are using our Off-site DNS, your domain name must use our nameservers. Use the Standard DNS or Premium DNS instructions below to find your nameservers, and then ask your domain name registrar how to set your nameservers with them.</p>
<h4>To Set Nameservers for Standard DNS Accounts</h4>
<p>If you are using our Off-site DNS and have Standard DNS (the basic version of our DNS Manager), ask your registrar to update your domain name&#8217;s nameservers to:</p>
<ul>
<li>mns01.domaincontrol.com</li>
<li>mns02.domaincontrol.com</li>
</ul>
<h4>To Set Nameservers for Premium DNS Accounts</h4>
<ol>
<li>Log in to your <a href="http://mya.securepaynet.net/default.aspx" target="_blank">Account Manager</a>.</li>
<li>In the left sidebar, click <strong>My Account</strong>.</li>
<li>In the <strong>Domain Related</strong> section, click <strong>Off-site DNS Management</strong>. The DNS Dashboard displays.</li>
<li>For the domain name you want to work with, click <strong>Edit Zone</strong>. The Zone File Editor displays.</li>
<li>Go to the <strong>NS (Nameserver)</strong> section to view your nameservers, which are in the following ranges:
<ul>
<li>[pdns01-pdns13].domaincontrol.com</li>
<li>[pdns02-pdns14].domaincontrol.com</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>NOTE:</strong> Nameservers use consecutive odd and even pairs, so<strong>pdns01.domaincontrol.com</strong> works with <strong>pdns02.domaincontrol.com</strong>, whereas <strong>pdns12.domaincontrol.com</strong> would not work with<strong>pdns13.domaincontrol.com</strong>.</li>
<li>Set your nameservers with your domain name&#8217;s registrar.</li>
</ol>
</div>
</div>
<h3 id="__display-auto-increment:3" title="cashpark"><a href="http://www.whonami.com/support/article.php?aid=664&amp;locale=en#cashpark">Setting Nameservers for a Domain Name Registered Elsewhere and Using CashParking or Quick Content</a></h3>
<div>
<div>
<p>If you purchased your domain name registration with another registrar but are using our CashParking or Quick Content services, your domain name must use our nameservers. Check with your domain name registrar for specific instructions on how to set your nameservers with them.</p>
<h4>To Set Nameservers for CashParking</h4>
<p>If you are using CashParking, you must tell your registrar to update your domain name&#8217;s nameservers to:</p>
<ul>
<li>ns01.cashparking.com</li>
<li>ns02.cashparking.com</li>
</ul>
<h4>To Set Nameservers for Quick Content</h4>
<p>If you are using Quick Content, you must tell your registrar to update your domain name&#8217;s nameservers to:</p>
<ul>
<li>hpns01.domaincontrol.com</li>
<li>hpns02.domaincontrol.com</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<p>After updating your nameservers, allow 4 to 8 hours for other networks to access information for .com and .net domain names, and allow 24 to 48 hours for other networks to access information for all other domain extensions. If you have difficulty, contact our 24/7 technical support team for assistance.</p>

</ul>
<p><strong>How it Works</strong></p>
<p>Hosting accounts are available to suit the needs of any business or individual.</p>
<p><strong>Dedicated Servers</strong></p>
<p><strong>Product Overview</strong></p>
<p>A dedicated server grants its user exclusive rights to the server&#8217;s bandwidth, memory and storage space, and complete control of server usage and software installation through admin (root) access to the server. This means that the server can be used for a virtually unlimited variety of purposes, including gaming, database management, and hosting and management of multiple traffic-intensive Web sites. Dedicated servers are particularly useful for companies and individuals that run very-high-traffic Web sites or applications.</p>
<p>Dedicated servers are available with the following operating systems:</p>
<ul>
<li>Linux: Red Hat Fedora Core 6 / Red Hat Enterprise 4 / Cent OS 4</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Microsoft: Windows Server 2003 Web Edition / Standard Edition</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Customer Benefits</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Free rapid setup.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Complete control over server space.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Install and run virtually anything on server through admin (root) access.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Manage multiple Web sites on a single server.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>24 x 7 FTP access.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>24 x 7 email, telephone, and web-based technical support.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>24 x 7 monitoring.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>24 x 7 physical security.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Best-of-breed routers and servers.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>How it Works</strong></p>
<p>When the user purchases a dedicated server, he/she actually leases a server box, which will be configured and set up according to his/her preferences, but remains at our data center. A dedicated server account provides the user with a dedicated IP address, full control of server usage and software installation, with admin (root) access to the server.</p>
<p>Users may customize their servers upon purchase.</p>
<p><strong>Virtual Dedicated Servers</strong></p>
<p><strong>Product Overview</strong></p>
<p>Virtual dedicated servers offer many of the capabilities and features of dedicated servers, including admin (root) access and dedicated IP addresses, but at a much lower price. A virtual dedicated s server is the perfect, affordable solution for users that wish to operate multiple Web sites, traffic-intensive Web sites, gaming servers, or simply want unlimited control of their server space through root (admin) access. Users share a server, but because each virtual dedicated server is effectively isolated from other accounts, the user has full control over the server space. Our virtual dedicated servers are available with choice of Windows or Linux operating systems.</p>
<p><strong>Customer Benefits</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Complete control of server space.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Generous bandwidth and disk space.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Free rapid setup.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Similar capabilities to those of dedicated servers, such as managing multiple Web sites on a single server, but at much lower price.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>24 x 7 FTP access.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>24 x 7 email, telephone, and web-based technical support.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>24 x 7 monitoring.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>24 x 7 physical security.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Best-of-breed routers and servers.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>How it Works</strong></p>
<p>Servers are partitioned in such a way that each virtual dedicated server operates almost entirely independently of the other accounts that share the same server space. With a virtual dedicated server, users will enjoy consistent, high performance even when usage peaks on the main server.</p>
<p>•     Users may customize their servers upon purchase.</p>
