Possible to change main domain? - Page 2

sirbriggs · November 26th, 2007, 2:07 PM

Okay, I just bought the domain ( www.waywardrobot.com ) from surpassdomains.com and I put these in as my nameservers: ns1095.dizinc.com & ns1096.dizinc.com since those were the ones I was told of when I initially signed up back in July. I dunno if that should work. My main domain change hasn't gone through yet.

Darn all this waiting. I shouldn't have drank that free Monster drink thingy, I'm getting all twitchy.

You need to submit a ticket so that the support team can change your root domain name. If you've already done this, then all you can do at this point is wait. I had purchased a new domain some time ago and had to go through this too, so it's just waiting. =) If you have any more questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

I do have one more question, sorry. Is it good/bad/neither that I put those in nameservers when buying the domain?

EDIT: And they said to open a ticket if the main domain switch took more than 24 hours. It's been about 23, I don't need to open one, right?

That's exactly what needed to be done. Once support changes the domain, you'll be up and running

Okay, the domain is up and everything. But it's pointing to the server, and not my particular account.
Right now it's pointing to: http://66.7.201.40/
And I want to point to: http://66.7.201.40/~cujpybvo/
Also, when I want to view the site, it reverts to the IP address in the URL bar.

And apparently, this is all correct according to the email I got. But it's not.

I'm sorry for being so much trouble.

I think your best bet is to open a ticket regarding this.

The problem was with wordpress and everything is fine and great. Thanks all of you for being so helpful.
