Enabling Total DNS on GoDaddy

| Comments

So I was trying to switch adamdoupe.com over to posterous (an amazing service).
Adamdoupe.com is registered via GoDaddy, and posterous even has a help
section on how to switch DNS. However, the Total DNS setting was
disabled in my account, and I figured I would post my problem/solution
here so I can help out anyone else with this problem.
 
The problem was that I had Custom Nameservers enabled. With this you
can't enable TotalDNS. The solution is simple, switch from Custom
Nameservers to Parked Nameservers
. Then you can enable Total DNS
to have your domain point where ever your little heart desires.
