What are my Nameservers?

Portal Home > Knowledgebase > Hosting and Domain Names > What are my Nameservers?

If you are hosted on GIZ TECHNOLOGY servers, you need to point your domain name to our nameservers. Nameservers are also referred to as DNS (domain name servers).

Your nameservers can be found in your Account Activation email. Nameservers vary according to which server you are allocated to.

To point your domain to these nameservers, you will need to login to your domain account (if you registered the domains on your own). These instructions are for our domain accounts, but also work with any Godaddy or Wild West Domains account holders.

Once you are logged in, the first thing you will (probably) need to do is unlock your domain. Choose the domain name by clicking the checkbox next to it, and then click the "Set Locking" button. Choose the "Unlocked" option and then save your changes.

Then you will click on the "Set Nameservers" button. Choose the custom nameservers option and enter in the GIZ TECHNOLOGY nameservers listed above. Save your changes. Before you log out, be sure to go back to "Set Locking" and lock your domain again. Locking your domain prevents changes to contacts and name servers.
