Nameserver/Domain question

Hi there,

I just moved to a new VPS and the nameservers are kinda whack.

In the welcome email, they said my nameservers were:
ns1.mydomain.net---->xx.xx.xx.101
ns2.mydomain.net---->xx.xx.xx.102

However, "mydomain.net" still points to my old server... so wouldn't "ns*.mydomain.net" point to the old server as well, not the new server?

If I update the nameservers for www.mydomain.net with the nameservers "ns1.mydomain.net" and "ns2.mydomain.net", would it work?

My host says yes it would but I don't think they're understanding what I'm trying to say.

You have to go into your registar (ie. GoDaddy, Namecheap, etc.) and enter the information as a host summary, or whatever the instructions tell you to do

Then give it 24 hours or so to spread across most networks.

Then change your sites nameservers to your new ns1.mydomain.net and ns2.mydomiain.net nameserver and all will work fine.

Thats right. You'll have to contact your registrar for that and the process may take 24-48 hours time.
