[help] How to direct domain -> Digitalocean server - adaŠ¼ - Oct 3, 2015
Hello.
I recently bought a domain from a company I've never used before and it seems like they have "DNS board" very similar to Digitalocean and thus I get confused. I can't just pass in the three nameservers like you do on the default domain registars like name, namecheap, goddady etc.
This is the DNS settings for the domain https://i.imgur.com/ja8pibC.png
x.180 <-- that's my digitalocean server's IP address
Is this correct? If someone could help me with this I'd be so grateful...
regards

You are missing Digital Ocean NS records
Add ns1.digitalocean.com
ns2.digitalocean.com and
ns3.digitalocean.com to your domain registrars settings. Then head over to your DO account go to DNS and add the domain and point it to your droplet.
