If you’re looking to use your GoDaddy domain on a Linode server, there are a few things to keep in mind. First, you’ll need to create a Linode account and add your GoDaddy account information. Once you’ve done this, you can configure your Linode account to use your domain. To do this, open the Linode Manager and click on the Domains tab. In the Domains list, click on the Add Domain button and enter your domain information. Next, click on the GoDaddy DNS tab and select the Use GoDaddy DNS checkbox.

PRO TIP: If you are planning to use your GoDaddy domain on Linode, be aware that there are some potential risks involved. First of all, GoDaddy is a large and well-known company, while Linode is a smaller, less well-known company. This means that if something goes wrong with your domain on Linode, it may be more difficult to get help from GoDaddy than if you were using another provider. Additionally, there have been some reports of people having difficulty transferring their GoDaddy domain to Linode. If you decide to go ahead with using your GoDaddy domain on Linode, be sure to research the process thoroughly and contact both companies for assistance if needed.

Click on the OK button to save your changes. Finally, click on the Domains tab again and select the your domain from the list. In the DNS Server field, enter the IP address of your Linode server. In the Primary DNS Server field, enter the IP address of the GoDaddy DNS server. Finally, in the Secondary DNS Server field, enter the IP address of the GoDaddy DNS server.
