Just installed a fresh CPANEL at cloudweb.com . I need some help though...

I only have on IP address. I just can't understand how to set up WHM in all the different sections so that I can point my website nameservers over there...

OR, should I just point my registrar record to my new ip address? I'm running myself in circles...help appreciated.

You need to edit the name server IPs at your domain registrar control panel. Most registrars allow to have two name servers in with the same ip. You can set up private name servers pointing to your server; like

ns1.yourdomain.com >> your_server_ip
ns2.yourdomain.com >> your_server_ip

By doing this your domain will start resolving to your server. Then you need to have proper entries in your named.conf. This can be done using the cpanel. Do let us know if you have further queries.

@Augustine - Indeed, I have done that. I think my larger issue is setting it up in WHM and Cpanel... THIS is where I'm basically clueless. – Shackrock Apr 23 '11 at 16:36
