DNS server is invalid

[bagusfly]

When I registered a free .tk domain and trying to use ns1.x10hosting.com as DNS server. It shows "ns1.x10hosting.com is invalid". What's wrong with it? Can you help? Thanks

Have you also tried entering the IP? Be sure to also enter in the details for ns2 as well.

But where is the ip address? I can only see the url. ( I entered ns1 and ns2).

But where is the ip address?

for [ .TK ] domains at dot.tk - you do not need the name-servers IPs ( I have a few .tk domains)
be sure you are at the page to set 'your' DNS name-server

I personally have the IP's set just in case something happens to the name server sub-domain's.
Anyway, go where bdistler points.

Here is my setting in my freenom.

What should I do next? Thanks

It seems that you were linking to a viewer in cPanel and that the actual path to the image is /home/[REMOVED]/public_html/wp-content/1.png, or /public_html/wp-content/1.png if you want the document root. Either, you can provide the sub-domain so that we can visit it (highly doubt you want to do that), use an image uploader, or wait for someone who has access to accounts to have a look at it.

It still shows "Invalid nameserver" when I add the ip address based one this page: https://x10hosting.com/wiki/Nameservers

Sorry, I though you can see.

Its the same problem, I seem to have. Also using Freenom, added the nameservers and it works fine with other domains/hosts just here I cant add/park the domain.

It still shows "Invalid nameserver"

for domain [ xy85.tk ] - I 'see' the DNS nameservers as...

Domain Nameservers:
NS01.FREENOM.COM
NS02.FREENOM.COM
NS03.FREENOM.COM
NS04.FREENOM.COM

at (and others) --> [ http://network-tools.com/default.asp?prog=express&host=xy85.tk ]

That's because I did some other testings. When I changed the name server to ns1.x10hosting.com, it's still the same problem.

From what @bdistler has linked to, it looks like it's now:

 Domain Nameservers:
      NS1.X10HOSTING.COM
      NS2.X10HOSTING.COM

Can you try adding the domain to your account?

Have you checked if the domain is usable or even added to your account either using 'add-on domains' or 'parked domains'?

I do find it a little odd for Chrome not to display an error code not saying anything to do with NXDOMAIN.

It works now. I don't know if it's because of the DNS propagation. But it took 3 days already.

Looks like it made it through all of those servers!
