Can you point your domain to someone elses website just by changing dns to be indentical to theirs?

Hi





I need to know if you can point a domain to any website you choose if you copy their same dns servers? Or would they have to add you to their hosting or something? In other words if I go lookup Yahoo.com dns servers would my website address forward to them/ point to them just by copying their same dns or would they have to do something internally on their end too?





Thanks for any help you can provide|||You need to point the dns to the server hosting your web pages. Be very careful what you alter in dns, an incorrect setting can lose you access totally, and making incorrect changes can get you blocked from ever accessing dns again along with serious legal consequences.
