If you are asking about DNS, you would need to install bind. If you are wanting to add resolvers edit /etc/resolv.conf

If you are installing on RH or CentOS you need also install bind caching only server which is a separate package:
yum install caching-nameserver bind

Ok, so basically. I have a godaddy account. From there I added a host of my IP address and made two ns servers. ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com so from there do I just add my domain and ipaddress to the resolv.config
I've installed bind just in case the resolv was not what I was suppose to do.

If you're using CentOS on the vps, this will walk you through the process for the most part.

OK, use the guide that Ryan posted. You need to login to SSH and configure this, or you can hire a management company to do this for you.

it doesnt seem to show me how to create two ns servers. Just one ns.domain.com
How would I go about creating ns1.consolediscussions.com for 174.121.226.11 and ns2.consolediscussions.com for my second ip 174.121.226.12

the second server should be
1) on the separate machine
2) preferably in different datacenter
3) have a bind configured in the slave mode for that domain
if you put bind slave in google you will find plenty of examples.

After using the above as the .db file and starting name:
service named start
It said OK, so does that mean it's enabled?

The db zone file is fine for this. But you need to modify the IPs in your domain registrar. Otherwise it wouldn't work.

My best recommendation, read:

I believe this can be done with BIND. Sometimes your hosting provider may offer this as well.
