Naming a DNS Server

[Brian Guild]

Guys,

I am totally confused.  I have set up my own DNS server successfully.  But,
when I go to a registrar and try to assign this DNS server to a particular
domain name by its IP number, it will not allow me to do so stating I must
enter the FQDN.

My question: how does one "name a name server" without having dependency on
another name server.  Do you do it through Verisign or Internic...or what?
I am moving my colocation, and part of that is that I will loose access to
their DNS servers.  I must set up my own servers to resolve my names, and it
doesn't make any sense to have dependency on other name servers to give my
actual DNS server a name.

Sincerely,

A very confused guy
