As soon as the customer signs up for the domain name and the transaction goes through the domain name is automatically pointed to the servers/IPs of my choosing..

There has to be away, im sure hosting companies dont pay 25 people to sit around setting up domain names for clients and just say "site automatically set up in just 1 hour" even though a human is doing it and eating up there payroll...

From what I have seen, registrars set it up to their default DNS with the option for the registrant to change it. Your customers who buy hosting services need to be told by you where to point their DNS to. Simple and sweet.

I dont want my customers to be aware of any other companies envolvement. If they have to go to the companies site and change the settings(or it is a private label site that is not within my main site) the customer will be aware that i am not saling the domain name directly..

Which is what im trying to avoid...

I can't find it right now, but I'm 99% sure with eNom, you can set the default name servers for you account. Then anyone who registered via your reseller account would get those defaults.

Is that what you're looking for?

Yes with Enom you can set up you DNS servers and all accounts will use them. Also Customer will never know you use enom.

Exactly.. like that,, but i want each account to be assigned to its own individual nameserver...

The accounts would be for resellers and they would have there own nameservers/IP's in order for me to restrict bandwidth, etc.etc.. . and so on..

Hmm, I don't know of anyone who can do that "automagically". You could do that with eNom's API, but you would have to code it.

Sorry, but I have to ask the question:

If a reseller does not even know out and register their own name servers, should the be reselling?
