When transferring your domain to a different hosting company, you may need to check the status of your DNS Name Server for a domain. To find the DNS Name Server for a domain, please follow these steps:
- Open Command Prompt (type cmd in the Search Box).
2. Type NSLOOKUP and press Enter.
3. Type set querytype=soa and press Enter.
4. Now, type your desired domain name, for example, www.howtonetworking.com, and the primary name server mentioned is the authoritative name server of that domain.
Note: If it shows “No start of authority (SOA) records available for the domain name,” the transfer hasn’t completed. Normally, the propagation may take 24-72 hours.
