Ok i just want to make sure i have set up my nameserves correctly, please tell me, here is what i have done.

Firstly, i went into Add ip adresses, added them, then went into "Manage Nameserver IPs" and added them like this.

64.5.56.5 ns1.blizzardhacks.net
64.5.56.6 ns2.blizzardhacks.net

I then went into edit setup, changed my primary nameserver too "Ns1.blizzardhacks.net" and the secondary nameserver to "Ns2.blizzardhacks.net"

Is that all that is needed to be done? if not please give me some intructions on what else to do!

Thanks.

If you choose 'Manage Assigned Nameserver Ips' in WHM and they are listed there with the correct IPs it should be ok. You could also ssh # pico /etc/nameserverips and see if they are correctly set up there. I usually do the following:

- make sure an IP is free
- create the account
- assign reseller privileges => nameservers at the bottom (do not assign IPs from there)
- change ownership
- edit dns zone => add two A records ns1/ns2 and their corresponding IPs

after that has been done they are usually listed when choosing 'Manage Assigned Nameserver Ips' and it should be working fine.
