is a pain. im having trouble setting my name servers i changed them to the hostwinds name servers that i was given and my website still wont show up. then i tried adding hostwinds and their ip's to the host summary and still have no luck. anyone know what im doing wrong? this was unbelievably simple with namecheap
thanks

It is quite simple dont want to do too much work.

1. Change your NS record which is given to you by your hosting company in DOMAIN setting
2. Wait for 24 hrs to 48 hrs

Allow it 24-48 hours. It takes more time with Godaddy rather than Namecheap.

so i realized what i did wrong. i set the name servers for my new domains correctly but i let my hosting run out at one point and when i finally renewed they changed from 7 and 8 to 4 and 3 so im guessing when your main domain isn't set up correctly addon domains won't work at all
