  3. From the drop-down, click on Manage Domain Names. This will open the Domain Details screen.
  4. Select Designated DNS, then click on Apply Changes. On the next screen, you will click on the Move DNS button. This will open the Edit Domain Name Servers page.
  5. Scroll down, and enter FatCat Servers DNS settings in the boxes. When you are done, click Move DNS. You will now be taken to a confirmation screen. You will need to click on the Edit DNS button. You will see your new settings listed on the next page

You have sucessfully updated your DNS settings, and your domain is now pointing to your new hosting account on Fatcat Servers.

NOTE: Please remember while propagation usually takes place in a couple of hours, it can take as long as 48 hours for your domain name to fully propagate after you make these changes.
