Multiple reseller accounts and name servers

Hi, I'm not a reseller yet but hope to be in the near future so I'm doing plenty of research now to try and prevent any nasty shocks This has led me to a quick question that I can't seem to find the answer for. Say I have one reseller account thats going well and I decided to get another from a different host so that I can offer redundancy/diff control panel/diff os etc. How would I go about setting up the name servers for this as I wouldn't want to register another domain for this second account. I've read a few threads on this subject but nothing that really clears it up for me, so can I have: ns1.mydomain.com -> ip of ns1 on main account ns2.mydomain.com -> ip of ns2 on main account ns3.mydomain.com -> ip of ns1 on second account ns4.mydomain.com -> ip of ns2 on second account etc..... and if so is this easy to setup, and how would I set it up TIA Adam

You're on the right track. You just have to set it up like you're talking in your domain registration control panel. Should be under "DNS settings" or "Custom Nameservers"

Does this actually work well? I thought the primary NS server is required in particular locations of the world? If his second account is answered on the third nameserver, this won't cause problems? Hmmmm
