Hi im new to all this server stuff...

i just bought a server it has cPanel/WHM on it

Ive made an account on it for my forum. using WHM
My server currently does not have a domain on it, its using an IP

Ive set my nameservers to
ns.lyricalsoundz.com
ns1.lyricalsoundz.com

ive contacted my previous host to change my domains nameservers to that.

my domain is www.lyricalsoundz.com

is it okay to have the domain im going to use for my nameservers as a domain for my account where the forum is going to be.
Do i have to register a nameserver or something or can i leave it as that?

you need to contact your domain registra and have the nameservers rgistered with them

ive already contacted my registrar to change the name servers.


What do you mean by 'registered' ?

If they a private nameservers and not that of your host providers, they will need to be registered in order for you to use them. Check with the place you registered your domain with and see if they also register nameservers as it's easier to have your records in one place to keep organized.

It could take a day to register and propogate.
