Setting nameservers on subdomains

Post by bchalk »

With my existing host I have set my domain say example.com to use the nameservers:
ns1.nfoservers.com
ns2.nfoservers.com

Now all of the subdomains I had say subdomain1.example.com return the nameservers:
ns1.nfoservers.com
ns2.nfoservers.com

Is it possible to set the subdomain to use different name servers?

i.e. subdomain.example.com would use the name servers:
ns1.mynameserver.com
ns2.mynameserver.com

I believe that subdomains can use different name servers in general, but it is not something that our control panel supports. Currently, it only supports having DNS for the entire domain managed through the Domains page here.

Ok, thanks, I'll just use a subdomain on another domain I have, it's not that critical.

The main thing I used it for is point one of my subdomains at no-ip/dnsexit/dyndns nameservers for that type of service to always keep my home ip handy.
