Dont know if anyone here has come across this and come up with an understandable solution of this.

I am looking to "park" "add this domain as an alias" to my hosting account located in the states. The domain is already registered, and I now want to add it as an alias for hosting I already have.

However, when I try park the domain I get the following error:

Parked Domain Additions

Using nameservers with the following IPs: xxx.xxx.xx.xx,xx.xx.x.xxx
Sorry, the domain is already pointed to an IP address that does not
appear to use DNS servers associated with this server. Please transfer the domain to
this servers nameservers or have your administrator add one of its nameservers to /etc/ip.remotedns and make the proper A entries on that remote nameserver.
/n

Anyone knows what needs to be done here?

You have you update the nameservers/ip for your .co.za domain to that of the server you wish to park it on.

But when you update the nameservers, Uniforum checks to see if the name servers are setup correctly first on the nameservers you wish to use. Now I cant setup the domain on the nameservers I want to move the domain to, because, when I try set up the nameservers with the domain I want to use it gives me the error shown above.

Yeah, good point...

Well what I do is just set up a hosting account on my server, then update the domain with uniforum. I cant understand why your server wont let you park it. Try setting up a dynamic DNS with zoneedit.com or something. Then you dont have to fight with stupid, backward Uniforum ways.

No, his host is fine, all he needs to do is add the domain temporarily into the WHM and update it, then delete the domain and add the pakred domain :)
