That is the correct IP though ns2 is configured in the server dns to
209.25.160.121
With the company I registered the domain name
When I allocate the nameservers in the management control that is available,
there is no option for IP addresses. You just enter the Primary/Secondary
NameServer.
(I have copied exactly what is on the company's website below).
On the server, within the zone for "scottishbusiness.org" I set up the ns1
and ns2 allocating a Host A record for each and (within the Properties)
added the IP for each in the Nameserver Tab. It is effectively a subdomain.
**********************
The e Domain Name Server (DNS) controls which ISP or web hosting company is
designated as the Primary and Secondary name server. This allows them to
control where your domain will point to. If you are unsure about what DNS
settings to add please contact your ISP or web hosting company.
Priority Name
Primary ns1.scottishbusiness.org
Secondary ns2.scottishbusiness.org
