Hi,

I am assuming you mean the host name for the server.

Do this in the Edit Setup section. Find the field that says: hostname

Add your hostname. This needs to be a FQDN and needs to be a domain name that you own. So it would look like:

host.mydomain.com

Then, you will need to create nameservers in the same section of WHM, just a little further down the page.

Primary Nameserver: call it NS1.YOURDOMAIN.COM and assign an IP to it by clicking the Assign IP button.

Do the same thing for Secondary Nameserver, but call it NS2.YOURDOMAIN.COM

NOTE: replace YOURDOMAIN.COM with your actual domain (the same one you used in the Hostname setting)

That should do it server side. Then you will need to go to the registrar where you registered the domain and register the new nameservers. Then update the nameservers on the domain to match your newly created nameservers. Then wait 2 to 3 days for them to fully propagate.
