Your Experiences at Go Daddy

Hi there,
You could register two nameservers in the way you've described if they have seperate IP addresses, but I wouldn't recommend it because the whole point of the second nameserver is to provide a failsafe if the first one croaks and you don't notice for a couple of hours.

Ideally, set up one domain name server in your own domain and register it with GoDaddy like you've already done, and then get your hostng provider to provide secondary DNS service for your domain. In this way your secondary nameserver (and possibly even a tertiary) is running on a totally different network to your nameserver, so if your network or server ever croak for a few hours, your domain name is still resolvable.

The reason for this is that a lot of times, a mail agent will bin a message immediately if the domain name is not resolvable, but will keep retrying for up to 5 days if the name is resolvable, but the server is not responding.

Hope that makes sense!

ok got it sorted now for some reason after the first one had registerd i could add the second with the same ip. Thank,s all the same!!

Hi
Jerrek i posted the one above before i saw your reply,
i see what you mean with the second name server, So could i say use my isp nameserver then allow transfere of my pirmary zone to there name server?
Thank's for your help.

That's correct - but of course your provider would need to be setup to request the transfer. Certainly my provider provides this free of charge to hosting customers and I think the same applies for most providers to be honest.

Give me a shout if you need any help

Thanks Jerrek i will contact them to find out.
