    Hello,
    right now my DNS config are
    dns1.somehost.com
    dns2.somehost.com

    but, I want to change to
    dns1.myhost.com
    dns2.myhost.com

    The thing is, how can I do that withou mess with everything?
    Do I have to do anything on my registrar or just change dns1.somehost.com to my IP address instead?
    thanks

    You have to change this at your registrar. The DNS Server is alaways a hostname and can not be an IP address.

    cool, can I use ISPConfig to make a nameserver using my own address?

    Sorry for buging you, but can you help me just with that?
    right now I have the following config:
    dns01.somedomain.com
    dns02.somedomain.com

    as DNS, and I use the same to connect to my ISPConfig panel:
    http://mydomain.somedomain.com:81/

    what I would like to do is, remove the somehost.com and put mine like:
    ns1.mydomain.com
    ns2.mydomain.com
    withow putting my site offline for too long..
    what do I need to do first?

    do you want me to post here any config file?

    thank you falko

    ps: I can give you my real domain names by PM if you want to.
