Creating and Modifying Your Own Nameservers

If you prefer not to use the free Joker.com name service and instead want to use your own nameservers, you need to "register" it.

Please note: Creating nameservers (e.g., registering a hostname with an IP address to define a nameserver) only works with Joker.com if the domain used for these nameservers is also a Joker.com domain. This limitation is based on technical/registry constraints.

If you intend to use a domain from another registrar, only that registrar will be able to register the nameservers with the registry.

To register your own nameservers, please follow these steps:

1. Under Domain Management, click on the edit icon in the "Nameservers" section:

2. Click on "register NS":

3. Enter NS name:

4. Enter IP-addresses and click "proceed":

Modifying Your Own Nameservers

If you want to modify the Nameserver you have previously created, you need to follow these steps:

1. Choose "Nameservers" from the "My Joker" menu:

2. Search for the Nameserver you would like to modify, and click "Change":

3. Make necessary changes, and click "Save":

After a successful change, you will receive a confirmation email.

Deleting Your Nameservers

If you want to delete one of your previously registered Nameservers, you can do this easily by following the steps below:

1. Choose "Nameservers" from the "My Joker" menu:

2. Search for the Nameserver you would like to delete, check it, and click "Delete marked DNS":

Please note: Only Nameservers that are not linked to any domain (even if they are in the RGP) can be deleted. If the selected name server is still in use, it cannot be deleted.
