    I never had any problems with GD and DH. Custom NS and enter the data.

    If you are cutting and pasting make sure you have no spaces.

    ns1.dreamhost.com
    then 2
    then 3 if I recall correctly

    Be sure to delete any entries that are there before you enter the new ones.

    Let us know how it works out.

    thanks colbyt, but after i selected the domains it wont even let me enter the name server, when i click on custom NS then it show me this message "Errors were detected." in red, i sent them a message but they didnt even help me it was a copy/past answer asking me to check their faq.

    It usually means the name servers aren't resolving.. what exactly are you putting in the custom fields?

    men, what i mean is that i dont even get the chance to put something in the custom firlds, as soon as i select the domains and do custom name servers, it tell me "errors.." before even i enter something :confused:

    Your probably hitting the button to create nameservers not change which ones they are pointed to.
