Creating My own DNS names.

[Biggeral2004]

Is there anyway I can create my own DNS names for the nameservers like register somewhere?

Example: ns1.myextradomain.net

Thanx

You can register nameservers with your registrar, you just need 1 IP address for each nameserver.

I mean that I know how to put *Servers* togather and program linux but not DNS.

Based on the domain in your first post you use enom. If you log in to your account there and click on the "?" in the top right for help, search for "register dns".

Nope I use cPanel;)

You would use cpanel to create and administer your DNS server, however in order to get the name NS1.yourdomain.com you need to set that up with your domain name registrar. Due to the nature of the DNS system, you cannot just create a subdomain and map it to a DNS server, the name of the server, ie NS1.yourdomain.com needs to be registered first.
