I would like to know if there are any good DNS hosting providers, free or paid.

I bought a doamin but my webhost doesn't really have all the DNS options i would like to set, like a CNAME to my local box.

are there any free or paid services that allow me to modify and edit quite some DNS records, or is it just like most other.. only allowing a few.

oh btw, if it could be free it would be the best because dad wasn't really happy that he had to use his cc for my domain,

Which domain registrar, Allowee?

Most domain registrars DO allow comprehensive DNS settings for your domain in their Domain Manager.

e.g. with the domain registrar that controls my domain: gidhelp.com, I can actually host topsites.gidhelp.com and www.gidhelp.com on two different web hosts, if I wanted to. I did this entirely via the DNS management option off my domain registrar. It doesn't (and shouldn't) cost you anything extra to use it.

the domain http://allowee.net is registered at namecheap.com
I just cheched and they seem to have such an option.

All i knew was to setup the nameservers to my host otherwise cPanel won't add it.

domain is added now and I'm now looking at the stuff at namecheap

namecheap.com, I think they're an Enom reseller, so I am quite certain that they too, allow this option! Congratulations on getting your own domain name
