Hey, this is my first time working with this and I tried to follow the 30min installation guide as much as I could but I am having issues with the DNS records since the website isn’t loading, they are most likely not correctly setup. I got the following domain: guidekeeper.com Which points to th…

You need a DNS A record for discourse.guidekeeper.com pointing to the IP address of your server. Nameservers are generally provided by the company that you purchased the domain name from, not Digital Ocean. So you likely want to change it using the DNS control panel at the place you purchased the d…

[Bild] codinghorror: In the event that you are using Digital Ocean’s nameservers (but why?) I use Digital Ocean’s name servers for most of my sites, and my install script creates DNS records on Digital Ocean’s servers when it does an install (it doesn’t hurt anything and keeps someone else fr…

You shouldn’t do this – it’s far more common for DNS controls to be at the place where people originally purchased their domain name. I suppose CloudFlare becoming more dominant has made this less common over time, but Digital Ocean ain’t exactly offering the service that CloudFlare is, either.

I’m scratching my head on this one, moving DNS only makes sense if it gives you something extra. DigitalOcean really doesn’t. [Bild] pfaffman: And some stat I saw someone showed that they had very fast resolution times That’s a meaningless metric. Once cached, DNS performance is down to your…

[Bild] codinghorror: You shouldn’t do this – it’s far more common for DNS controls to be at the place where people originally purchased their domain name. Yes. I’ve rarely recommended that folks change their name servers, but a few have anyway. Adding the records to Digital Ocean’s name serve…

@M_A , I’m a newbie with this and I also registered my domain with Namecheap and hosted it on Digital Ocean. All of my DNS work was done on the Namecheap side and I haven’t had any problems since it has been set up. I’d recommend doing all this on Namecheap like the smarter people above me have said. …

[Bild] pfaffman: I think that’s true, but I saw one article (which I won’t try to find) that indicated that the resolution times for Digital Ocean were really good. You’re talking about a single record which will be orders of magnitide lower than the TTFB. There’s really no reason this should…

[Bild] Stephen: At first I wondered if you meant it doesn’t keep anyone else from using DO nameservers for their domain, Digital Ocean allows only one account to be in control of a given domain. If you own a domain, creating a record keeps anyone else from trying to create records for your do…

[Bild] pfaffman: Digital Ocean allows only one account to be in control of a given domain. If you own a domain, creating a record keeps anyone else from trying to create records for your domain. I doubt that hijacking a domain by creating records in Digital Ocean and then re-directing the regist…

[Bild] Stephen: I do hope you revisit this because you’re doing your customers a great disservice even suggesting migrating DNS to DO. Migrating DNS to digital ocean is a bad idea, full stop @pfaffman .
