Nameservers setup

Question

I'm going to move to dedicated server from shared hosting. I setup nameservers on xname.org for my domain, added A record. Now I need to change nameservers to ns0.xname.org., ns1.xname.org. But firstly I would like to check somehow that all will work fine after name servers change. Can I check somewhere that setup of nameservers on xname.org is correct?

Updated according to @Olipro answer

Here is the result of dig

root@lexa-virtual-machine:/var/www# dig @ns1.xname.org uniquemobiles.com.au A

; <<>> DiG 9.7.3 <<>> @ns1.xname.org uniquemobiles.com.au A

As I can see A record is correct and all will work fine?

Without the domain name it's hard to help. – Alex Feb 25 '13 at 13:25 — Alex, Feb 25 '13 at 13:25

I believe that http://dnscheck.sidn.nl/?test=undelegated would be useful.

I recommend BIND dig.

dig @ns0.xname.org mydnsrecord.example.com A

Seems that you are right. I updated my question, can you tell me if setup of nameservers is correct and I can use them? – freento Feb 25 '13 at 13:39
Your current DNS record points to 103.11.207.181 - assuming that it is your intention for the IP to change when you flip nameservers, yes. – Olipro Feb 25 '13 at 13:46
Yes, current nameservers are pointed to 103.11.207.181. So when I will change nameservers to ns1.xname.org, my website will open correctly on 114.112.255.122, correct? – freento Feb 25 '13 at 13:50
yes, although you should be aware that the nameserver records for your domain currently have a TTL of 14400 so the switchover will take several hours to actually happen. It would arguably be a good idea to change the IP on the old nameservers if you're able to. – Olipro Feb 25 '13 at 14:08
Do you meen to add A record? – freento Feb 25 '13 at 14:16
