Name servers are essential for pointing your domain to the correct hosting server. If you want to use custom or private name servers for a domain registered with TightHost, you can easily configure them through the TightHost Control Panel.
There are two ways to register a new Name Server (NS) record for a domain registered with TightHost:
Option 1: Using the Edit Name Servers/WHOIS Column
- Log in to your TightHost Control Panel and navigate to My Domains > Registered Domains.
- Locate the domain you want to update and find the Edit Name Servers/WHOIS column.
- Click the Edit Name Servers icon.
- The Manage DNS pop-up window will open. Switch to the Manage Domain-Based NS tab.
- Enter the name server (NS) and its corresponding IP address.
- Click the Register button to save the new name server record.
Option 2: Using the Domain Information Window
- Sign in to your TightHost Control Panel and go to My Domains > Registered Domains.
- In the Domain column, click the domain name you want to modify.
- The Domain Information pop-up window will appear. Open the DNS Servers & Settings tab and click Register/Edit Name Servers.
- In the Manage Domain-Based NS tab of the Manage DNS window, enter the name server and IP address details.
- Click Register to add the new name server record.
Important Notes
