setting up dns in plesk

I setup a client and domain, then went to DNS management and there's 8 records, including

ns.<domain>. A <ip>

So I'm guessing this means ns.mydomain.com is the nameserver,
but it says unavailable when I try to set it, and I need 2.
ns1.mydomain.com and ns2.mydomain.com didn't work either.

Thanks that's HOW to do it, all I need is WHAT to do!
I just need to get a domain running should be simple.

If I go SERVER/DNS
I get these wildcards in the table

Host Record type Value
<domain>. NS ns.<domain>.
<domain>. A <ip>
<domain>. MX (10) mail.<domain>.
<ip> / 24 PTR <domain>.
ftp.<domain>. CNAME <domain>.
mail.<domain>. A <ip>
ns.<domain>. A <ip>
webmail.<domain>. A <ip>

_________________________________

If I go DOMAINS/Upload4free2.com/DNS

Host Record type Value
upload4free2.com. NS ns.upload4free2.com.
ns.upload4free2.com. A 68.178.165.168
upload4free2.com. A 68.178.165.168
webmail.upload4free2.com. A 68.178.165.168
mail.upload4free2.com. A 68.178.165.168
ftp.upload4free2.com. CNAME upload4free2.com.
www.upload4free2.com. CNAME upload4free2.com.
upload4free2.com. MX (10) mail.upload4free2.com.
68.178.165.168 / 24 PTR upload4free2.com


So it looks like ns.upload4free2.com is my nameserver? But that's no good.
What should my nameservers be? then how do I set them?

Did you get your domain working? That's all I'm trying to do.

Yeh, no problems... didn't touch the dns bits at all. It was allocated
automatically when I added the domain name.
