How can i configure my domain to point to my digitalocean vps using different nameservers then ns1.digitalocean.com etc

Posted December 9, 2014

Hi, i have a domain that now point to an ip using two nameservers. From the domain’s control panel i can change the ip to be pointed, and i did it, replacing with my vps IP. Now what i had to do in digitalocean’s control panel?? I would like to avoid having to use digitalocean’s nameservers. Thank you!

If your domain is pointed at another set of nameservers and you have created an A record pointing to your droplet’s IP address then you should be all set. Our nameservers are only used if you point your domain to them.
