Are you referring to NetSol's "Host" forms at
http://www.networksolutions.com/cgi-bin/makechanges/itts/host ?

Registering your DNS servers as hosts is supposed to make DNS updates easier, in
that if you change your DNS IP numbers, all NetSol domains using your DNS servers
will also update automatically. Very helpful if you have dozens or hundreds of
domains.

BUT, this has been a nightmare for me. Last October I changed my dedicated to
another ISP and got new IP numbers. The NetSol updates never worked. In fact,
when I registered some more brand new domains with my new IP numbers, the brand
new domains reverted back to the old DNS IP numbers.

I ended up having to totally abandoning my DNS names, and start fresh with new
ones. In other words, I used to have ns1. and ns2.micromaniac.net. Even today,
those DNS names are permanently cast in stone at NetSol under the old IP numbers,
and they won't delete or update. I had to rename my DNS to mm1. and
mm2.micromaniac.net, to get my domains to point correctly. Several emails to
NetSol -- useless. Am I going to spend 2 hours long distance calling their
incompetent tech support and probably still get nowhere -- no.

Fortunately for me, I only have 15 to 20 domains, so it wasn't that much of a
PITA. It took a week to change them all over, but fortunately StarNine let me run
copies of WebStar for that week, so no sites were really down.
