Buying a Luxembough domain requires having a nameserver to point it to, before they allow you to buy the domain.

I have a 1 webserver (CentOS 7 with cPanel), and 1 nameserver (CentOS 7 with cPanel DNSonly).

On this site: www.dns.lu/en/support/checking-nameservers/ my domain has to score "Success" but i get "Failed" due to this message;


Error: Nameserver 'ns1.i-strategi.dk' at address '93.104.214.152' does not advertise itself as nameserver

Error: Nameserver 'ns2.i-strategi.dk' at address '37.61.223.179' does not advertise itself as nameserver


What exactly does "not advertise itself as a nameserver" mean?
Both my dedicated nameserver and the webserver itself works perfect as a nameserver.

To run the same tests, you can use following details (must be lowercase):

Domain: hannibal.lu

Nameserver: ns1.i-strategi.dk - 93.104.214.152

Nameserver: ns2.i-strategi.dk - 37.61.223.179

The question here is: How do I advertise my nameserver as a nameserver?

If you ask your nameservers about your domain name, they reply:

hannibal.lu. 86400 IN NS ns1.abusiness.dk.
hannibal.lu. 86400 IN NS ns2.abusiness.dk.
hannibal.lu. 86400 IN NS ns3.abusiness.dk.


And as you can see here for yourself, your nameservers' names given above are not included in the list of nameservers authoritative for your domain name as listed as NS records. This is a basic error which will forbid your domain name to resolve properly, so you need to fix it.

You may ask your registrar or prospective registrar for buying the domain name to also provide DNS service to you, so that you do not have to worry about it.
