The Underscore Archives

Hi [_],
I'm  not quite understanding something on the DNS front...

A client has the domain name OPUS-INTERIORS.COM (and I didn't do the 
website before you shout at me).

I belive I have changed the name servers to editdns.net so I can have 
better control.

I did this earlier in the week but a CNAME I set up is not resolving so 
I know something is amiss.

However, if you do the following:
http://private.dnsstuff.com/tools/whois.ch?ip=opus-interiors.com

It says

I was referred to whois.joker.com; I'm looking it up there.

I'm a bit confused between the "DNS Servers" and "nserver".

Surely if the "nserver" correct (and "ns1.eu.editdns.net." is) then I 
should see my CNAME resolving?

Furthermore, when logged into EDITDNS and looking at the OPUS-INTERIORS 
record I set up I can see a warning that it thinks the nameservers are 
wrong.

I'm missing something obvious here I know.
