2.2 How to Transfer a Domain Name You Already Own

If you have registered a domain name with another company you can still use it with your Nexx account. The simplest way to do this is through a DNS transfer, where you continue to use the original registrar for the domain name, and you use Nexx for your hosting. Domains are managed from the Domains menu tab.

Steps:

1. Click the Domains menu tab to access the Domain Manager.
2. Click the Add button.
3. Select the Transfer tab to move the hosting to Nexx.
4. Enter the existing domain name under DNS Transfer.
5. Click the Transfer button. If the domain exists and can be transferred, you will be presented with additional instructions onscreen to complete the installation.
6. Point your domain name DNS Settings to Nexx (see section 2.3 below).

2.3 Point Your DNS Settings to Nexx

If you have added a domain name to your Nexx account using the DNS transfer option, you need to point the DNS server information at your current registrar to Nexx. The company that you originally registered the domain with can provide you the information on how to configure the DNS settings on their system.

The DNS settings should be configured as follows:

Primary Name Server: ns1.nexxonline.com

Secondary Name Server: ns2.nexxonline.com
