Support for new country domains .AF

Posted on May 3, 2017

Does DO support country domains like .af? I am trying to register a .af domain and point to DO namesevers and it is saying “The nameserver does not provide a SOA record for at least one domain.”

I can ignore this warning but I am not sure if it will work.

DigitalOcean only provides name servers in relation to DNS, as well as a way to manage said DNS if you point your domain to their name servers. There shouldn’t be any issues with various extensions. I’ve used plenty from .io to .sh.

If there’s an issue, it would most likely be on the registrars end as they would be the ones to either accept or deny the name servers that you set for your domain.
