What is an NS record?
An NS record records the name servers you specify for your domain. If you want to change the name servers for your domain, don’t do it directly through the zone file, use the ‘Update DNS (Nameservers) & Contact Info’ link in the control panel. The name servers which are authoritive for your domain are listed in the NS records of the zone file for your domain, these should be bb-onlines nameservers and you should leave them as their default unless you know exactly what you are doing. Changing these may cause your domain not to resolve, and if you have a web site for your domain, this may become unavailable until the name servers are correct.
• The NS-Record indicates the authoritative name server for that domain. If there is some question about the IP Address for a particular domain, other name servers know where to ask for a definitive answer. Note that to use OnlineNIC’s DNS Power Tools you must use ns000.onlinenic.com as your primary name server. This is the default setting when you register new domains with us.
