These instructions explain how to define a nameserver that you will host on your own server if your domain is registered through eNom. This document is not an endorsement of eNom's services, it merely provides instructions to a frequently asked question.

You must be running nameserver software on your server in order for this procedure to be useful. If you have a control panel on your server, this should already be the case.

For this example, we will use the following nameserver:

ns1.example.com (10.0.0.1)

1. Log into eNom through the domain management interface.
2. Hover over the "Domains" menu along the top of the page, then move down to "Advanced Tools" and click "Register a Name Server."
3. Locate the "Register a NameServer Name" section and enter "ns1.example.com" in the box for "NameServer" and "10.0.0.1" in the "IP Address" box.
4. Click the "submit" button to create the nameserver record. If you need to create more nameservers, simply repeat these steps for each nameserver.

If you want this domain to use your newly created nameservers, simply return to the "My Domains" page, click on the domain and set ns1.example.com (and any additional nameservers) as the nameserver your domain will use under the "DNS Server" section.

You should allow 24-48 hours for propagation of these changes on the Internet, however most of the time everything should begin working within 4 hours.
