What do you mean: "Set to my own IP" The nameserver IP on network solutions NEEDS to be an IP address of a DOMAIN NAME SERVER. Not the IP address of your site! > Problem is I do not have a valid secondary nameserver quite yet, > though I think I'd still be able to get to it.

Oh, the domain is 1nova.com @ 63.105.24.23 What you need is two DOMAIN NAME SERVER (DNS) that resolve "1nova.com." to 63.105.24.23 On other words (simply speaking) the user types 1nova.com in the URL on the browser. The browser sends "1nova.com" to the DNS and the DNS reponds: 63.105.24.23 > If anyone could point me to a document on how to set this kind of > stuff up with Network Solutions or other, it'd be much appreciated!
