How to remove the dot at the end of the nameservers?

Posted on April 6, 2020

For a NodeJS application I want to use a custom domain. However my custom domain provider doesn’t accept the current nameservers:

ns1.digitalocean.com. ns2.digitalocean.com. ns3.digitalocean.com.

The dot at the end of the nameserver is not accepted. Is there a way to edit those nameservers? When I try to edit it won’t be saving without the dot at the end.

Hello,

Would you mind sharing which is your current domain name provider?

Usually when changing your Nameservers you should not have to add the dot at the end.
