Hi, You do not have to have you own IPs allocated to you to set-up domains or DNS. All you need is the right to use them, which is what you have when they are assigned to you by Linode, ARIN do not have to be notified or anything like that. To register your DNS servers ns.whatever etc you have to link the domainname to the IP addresses. This usually done through the company you registered your domain with, enom, godaddy etc. They usual have a link like register your nameserver etc in that you enter the nameserver domain ns1.whatever etc and the IP that your nameserver is located on. Once this is done your registrar submitts it and it takes 24-72 hours to trickle through the DNS network. After that you DNS servers are registered you then need to set-up a DNS server on your IP address(es) and point your domains to the domain servers. Adam |

couldn't have said it better myself adam. Strike, it sounds like what you are thinking of is reverse dns, translating an ip address back to name. For forward dns (name -> ip) adam is absolutely on the mark. |
