What do you have to fill as DNS server for you nameserver?
if you register yourdomain.com for nameserver what is the DNS server for yourdomain.com do you have to leave it black or piont i to itself ns1.yourdomain.com

[Hello&Co]

You would point it to yourself, ie the nameservers that you just registetred, usually ns1,yourdomain.com & ns2.yourdomains.com

Great info. Thanks

Okay, this is useful, however, one thing I notice about Namecheap is the lack of being able to make custom nameserver prefixes.

i.e. CUTENAME.SOME-NAME.COM
BADNAME.SOME-NAME.COM

It's just the standard, plain vanilla "dns1". Or, am I missing something?

[ponchos]

might be possible to ask them, i wanted custom prefixes too, just not bothered to ask them hehe :p

On most domain registrars custom nameservers are as simple as "create prefixes, specify IP and press create". Most registrars have the same procedure but with slight variation.

bikster, you are right

Good stuff, most of the registrars allow you create you own name servers and some i think don't allow. You can also do this on you web hosting account on you control panel too. But is easy for you do this at domain registrars and they give clear steps and you need not worry much about technical details. :-)
