Custom DNS

Hi,

This is probably a dumb question since the IP addresses are the same but here goes...

My custom DNS is registered. I will be changing accounts to that rather than the default DNS....

The question is...

Should I include the default DNS as well as my custom? In other words list 4 DNS. Just wondering if that would prevent problems in the future if for some reason my custom ones go down... then everything would still be viewable?

Just wondering... I realize that my custom DNS is the same IP as the default ones, but really curious about adding all 4.

Thanks.

It makes little difference. YOu need at least 2 registerd name servers.
