The file that actually handles WHM > DNS Functions > Nameserver IPs area is at /var/cpanel/nameserverips.yaml location. If you want this to be changed, you’d want to make a backup of that file, then modify it:

Code:
cd /var/cpanel
cp nameserverips.yaml nameserverips.yaml.bak110711
vi nameserverips.yaml
