If your registrar is Onlinenic which uses DNS_DIY then your SOL because there is no instruction for you to follow... until now :D
So let start
1. Log in to your account at DNS-DIY
2. If it's not already selected, click Zone Edit.
3. Under Host enter only the subdomain you want to use. For example, if you picked
www.mydomain.com as your blog's address, just enter www as the entry under Host.4. Under Type select CNAME from the dropdown menu.
5. Enter
ghs.google.com under Data.6. Leave Priority and TTL as is.
7. Click APPEND
8. Next is to make sure the domain name server is pointing to DNS-DIY's DNS server. To do this click Loookup if its Correct then your done, you'll just have to wait for 24 to 48 hours for it to propagate. Now if it fails then we have to go to ONLINENIC to change the DNS Server.
9. Log in to your account at ONLINENIC
10. Type ns1.dns-diy.net for DNS1 and ns2.dns-diy.net DNS2
11. Click Modify
12. Follow no. 8 instructions to test if its working you can also do a NS Lookup. Google nslookup and click anyone of them ex. Kloth.net,
If it still doesn't work then contact your Domain hosting and ask for help.
**UPDATE**
Regarding SysOp's question about using Google's IP addresses. Yes, nowadays you should put the following IP address in your DNSDIY configuration.
216.239.32.21
216.239.34.21
216.239.36.21
216.239.38.21
To do this you must create an "A" Name/Type for each IP Address as shown in the example below.

Hello paul,
For email to work with your domain you have to signup for a free Google Apps account. Once you have signup you can now configure your DNS/MX according to Google's instructions here.
You can read/view my "DNS-DIY for Google Apps and Blogger" post to see my complete DNS-DIY configuration. I hope this helps you

I can see that in this picture : http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LSf2oQ7PDIM/SS2ak9AV-9I/AAAAAAAAI2c/O3te730dWGE/s1600-h/dnsdiy_screenshot1.jpg it comes out as "ghs.google.com." notice the ending dot : "com." I don't see that in my configuration. Did you manually put it in?

@basarat yes you manually put the "dot" at the end.

@SysOp yes you need to enter Google's IP address. I updated my post to include adding Google's IP addresses.

Hi, i have an issue with my Onlinenic.com account. I didn't noticed that my nameserver is incorrect
OLD NS : ns1.dns-diy.com and ns2.dns-diy.com
and i changed it into
NEW NS: ns1.dns-diy.net and ns2.dns-diy.net
i've seen on my ONLINENIC.COM account that the nameserver is already changed however when i tried to look up on the whois information it keeps telling me that the nameserver is pointing to the old nameserver..
its been 4 days and im not able to verify my domain ownership to google because of the NAMESERVER.. i've also tried to contact chat support of onlinenic.com and not able to help me out with my problem..
i hope you help me with this one.. thanks
