[cobalt-users] Old Perennial - registering nameservers

[David Griffith <david@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello folks  - newbie alert, and apologies for bringing up another
chestnut...

I have plumped for a RaQ4 with Webfusion's dedicated servers package and I'm
in a muddle over problems regarding nameserver registration...

The Raq was setup on Monday with the domain vikingnewmedia.com, which was
subsequently registered *later* that day with 123-reg.co.uk.

The DNS and nameserver settings showing in my Raq web interface were
inputted by Webfusion as per their setup procedure, and seem to be a correct
and complete set of DNS settings - i.e. no need for me to enter any
additional DNS settings.

I was then told to also register the nameservers thus:

ns.vikingnewmedia.com (with IP address 212.67.197.73)

ns2.vikingnewmedia.com (with IP address 212.67.197.74)

I did this using the Network Solutions online host change form three days
ago, yet get an "authentication error" when I use the 123-reg nameserver
transfer form.

Any suggestions as to what might be the problem?

Regards

David Griffith
