Few Questions
Hi, I bought a domain with webhosting here - However, I want to keep the domain, but use a different hosts webhosting. I already changed the nameservers - I am using the other host for PHPNuke. I am now waiting for it to update, is that all I do? It works with it like this: http://mywebsite.com but not when I use www. Why is that? Thanks [This post has been edited by t_s_la pine_us on Nov 26, 2007 7:09am.]

Yes, you would just need to wait for the name server changes to take effect. The update usually happens within half an hour, but it can take longer to view your actual site due to caching of the old name server settings on your computer or by your ISP. Further info: [help=161]

For future reference, there is a method of clearing the lookup cache on your local computer (assuming you're using Windows 95 or later) Simply: 1. Start > Run 2. Then type (without the "") "ipconfig /flushdns" 3. Press Enter This will empty the local cache of the lookup. Please note some MODEMs and other devices will also have their own cache and it will not clear the ISPs cache.
