Conflicting error messages when editing name server addresses! Please fix ASAP!
I am trying to change the names servers on http://SurfForLocalMusic.com but I am receiving conflicting messages. When I go to change the DNS settings, the server address to ns6055.hostgator.com and ns6056.hostgator.com I receive message No#1 below and thenI go to un-forward the email and I receive message No#2 below. Very confusing and time consuming. message No#1: Please turn off email forwarding before setting name servers. message No#2: Please select one of our DNS services (parking, forwarding, stealth forwarding, or web hosting) before setting up your email forwarding settings. I need to get this resolved ASAP please! Glen Peladeau

Our system will allow you to set DNS or name servers, but not both. You can use email forwarding with DNS, but you cannot use it with name servers. Email would be configured through your host if you decide to use name servers. Also, name servers should be set on the name servers page rather than the DNS page. Instructions are below. [help=3]

When I follow your instructions I get the error "There is 1 error Please turn off email forwarding before setting name servers." How do I turn off email forwarding?

Follow the same directions for setting name servers. Instead of choosing "Name Servers" setting from the top drop-down menu, choose "Email Forwarding".
