Transferring over a Domain Name to your Heart Internet Dedicated server.

I've written these Heart help files as in my circumstance the order of which things need to be done is different.  As I buy my domains through another provider, which means my domain will not be on the manage>express dns list.

 From your Heart Internet Customer Area, go to 'Manage>Dedicated Servers' from the right-hand menu.
- Scroll down to 'Domain References for Dedicated Servers'.
- Enter your domain into the text field and hit 'Create Reference', do not include any subdomains (e.g. www/ftp/mail).

- From your Heart Internet Customer Area, go to 'Manage>Dedicated Servers' from the right-hand menu.
- Scroll down to 'Express DNS for Dedicated Servers'.
- Select your dedicated server from the drop-down list.
- Select your domain from the second drop-down list.
- Click 'Set DNS'.
- This will automatically point the domain at the primary IP address of your dedicated server, the following services are included (www, ftp, *, @), mail is excluded.
- More granular controls are also available, look for the text: 'The following DNS settings will be created for yourdomain.com , please click here for more advanced settings.'
