  I have two (2) sites hosted by WinHost. I have a question related to changing the names servers names from ns1.winhost.com to ns1.wordpress.com and so forth. I want to map the http://www.M-Gymkhana.com domain name to my current blog jbiitester.wordpress.com. Because I have two (2) sites hosted by the same services, will this change to the name servers affect it actually working properly?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Changing where you map one URL won’t affect the blog you have on the second URL at all.

  You’ll click the link to go to the blog and end up at WordPress.com. It can take up to 72 hours for the DNS to settle down.

  I’m sorry, but I’m confused. If I put the M-Gymkhana.com site in the browser, it should take me to jbiitester.wordpres.com correct, since I’ve changed the name server correct?
