Use my own name servers but still host my site with PowerDNN

ISSUE:

You want to host your website at PowerDNN, however, you either do not want to or are not able to change your nameservers to be NSA.PowerDNN.com and NSB.PowerDNN.com

RESOLUTION

What you need to do is create the appropiate DNS records at your registrar's name servers.
To find out the DNS records you need to create:

1)  Log into the Control Panel
2)  Click System > [Domain] > DNS
3)  It will list a lot of different DNS records.  Make note of these.
4)  Log into your registrar (the company you bought your domain from)
5)  Go to their "Manage DNS" section.
6)  Create the records listed in #3.  The important records have a type of "A", "CNAME" and "MX".  All others can be discarded.
