Where do I find "Domain Name Servers"?

I just created my website using iweb '08 and I purchased my personal domain name using godaddy.com. Once I was ready to to let the world see what I had created, I clicked publish and it took a few minutes and once the website was finished uploading I couldn't find it anywhere. I called godaddy and they informed me that I need to the "domain name servers" from Apple. I have no idea what this means and no one can seem to help me. Can anyone help me find where I can get DNS?

macbook pro, Mac OS X (10.0.x)

That's wrong, you don't, and you can't use them. You use the default name servers for Godaddy. You need to find someone else at Godaddy who knows how to set the www CNAME to web.mac.com. Countless people have done this for iWeb sites.
