The NS records tell "the internet" where the domain is hosted. A minimum of 2 NS records are required. These are provided by your host and are probably something like: ns1.yourhost.com, ns2.yourhost.com or dns1.yourhost.com, dns2.yourhost.com. Once you update these 2 NS records with your hosts information, it will take about 48 hours for the changes to take effect. If you're hosting yourself, the situation is obviously different; you'll need to set up DNS servers and add a bunch of DNS records to the server. However, if you have a professional host, you should be all set.

cool:
if sexiness was measured by domain knowledge, you'd be freakin Fabio. happy: biggrin:
