Domain Name Registration > Domain Name Servers

Checking if Your Name Servers are Authoritative

You may verify if your name servers are authoritative by visiting www.kloth.net and entering the domain name and the name server the domain is using.

If the answer at kloth.net lists a Non-authoritative answer at the top of the name server list, it is not authoritative.

Remember that the name servers that you are trying to use at the registry must be the only ones listed on each name server that you are trying to use. The name servers listed in the name server’s zone file for the domain, must match the name servers you are trying to use for the domain or it will be considered non-authoritative.
