Your DNS panel is adding the HOST name value in front of the base name. So you should not repeat the lamorjewels.vn for your subdomains.

You can see from this record what happened

honeypot.lamorjewels.vn.lamorjewels.vn.	3600 IN	A 103.138.88.34

Does the interface you have shown update the nameservers ns1.matbao.vn and ns2.matbao.vn?

If not, nothing you enter there matters.

If it is supposed to, you should inquire with the host as to why it is not updating your zone at your authoritative namseververs.

I think yes. How can I check? This is the DNS lookup on WHO IS. Appear these name server.

Aren't they correct?
How can I choose the right nameserver?

So should I put only the honeypot and not honeypot.lamorjewels.vn in the HOST name?
I will try.
Thank you.
