?’s About registering a DNS w/Internic

by techin . Updated 25 years, 3 months ago

1) How do you register your Domain Name Server with Internic, so you can support your own domain names as if you were your own ISP?
2) Is it necessary to register your DNS with internic to use them as your primary and secondary DNS on your domain name registration?
3) How important or what advantages do you get when you have your DNS with an NT domain equal to the web domain name (ie “yourweb.com”).
4) Can you, register your DNS with internic or use your own DNS, using the domain names your DNS is to “support” without having that Domain listed at another DNS server (such as your ISP’s).

I think I know the answers to all but the first question but would like some input from those who have done this before. I am running my own beta network at home and have run into a problem with my domain name support at one of my ISP’s. I had to change my domains ip address they have had my web domain down for 2 weeks because the customer support can’t figure out the difference between DNS namelisting and web/email forwarding. So I am looking into using my own DNS servers to support my domain names and ip addresses. Before I change my primary and secondary DNS at internic I would like some advice from someone who has some experiance here.
