Using name servers with CO.CC

[Jordan C]

Hey, I've just updated my name servers with CO.CC, can someone please tell me how these work? :dunno:

The nameservers hold the information about where data sent to that domain should end up. So it allows your domain to point to your website. To get it to work with your x10 Account you will need to add either and Add-on or a Parked domain in your cPanel or use the AMP to change you main domian. NOTE: It can take up to 48 hours for the new domain to start working.
(There is probably a better explanation than that.)

From WikiPedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nameserver):

In computing, a name server (also called 'nameserver') consists of a program or computer server that implements a name-service protocol. It will normally map (i.e. connect) a human-recognisable identifier of a host (for example, the domain name 'en.wikipedia.org') to its computer-recognisable identifier (such as the Internet Protocol (IP) address 145.97.39.155), and vice versa.[1]

Does that help at all?
