Modify DNS settings for domain names using the webhosting nameservers

If the affected domain name is set to cns1.dotroll.com and cns2.dotroll.com or ns1.webspacecontrol.com and ns2.webspacecontrol.com name servers, you can change the domain name’s DNS settings as described below.

 If the affected domain name uses ns1.dotroll.com and ns2.dotroll.com name servers, you can modify the domain name DNS settings based on the Modify DNS settings for domain names using the default name server article.

QUERY NAME SERVERS

You can query the name names that are currently set for the domain name as follows:

You can use the nslookup command on Windows:

nslookup -q=NS webspacecontrol.com
Server:  google-public-dns-a.google.com
Address:  8.8.8.8

Non-authoritative answer:
webspacecontrol.com     nameserver = ns1.webspacecontrol.com
webspacecontrol.com     nameserver = ns2.webspacecontrol.com

Under Linux use the host command:

host -t NS webspacecontrol.com
webspacecontrol.com name server ns2.webspacecontrol.com.
webspacecontrol.com name server ns1.webspacecontrol.com.
