Hi, Is it possible to setup private name servers at DigitalOcean? What IPs should be used for ns1.mydomain.com, ns2.mydomain.com, ns3.mydomain.com at Registrar?

You can set up your own nameserver droplets and create glue records for ns1.mydomain.com, ns2.mydomain.com that point to your droplets. <br>You may also use our DNS manager on your nameservers by setting up glue records that resolve to ns1.digitalocean.com, ns2.digitalocean.com, and ns3.digitalocean.com.
