    Need help to connect VPS to domain.

    Hey, RageZone!

    I have a domain (habster.me) and VPS (Windows Server 2008). I do not quite know how to put together vps and domain. Domain is from godaddy.com. Should I set up DNS? If I set up dns host what will be then?
    Hope someone can help!
    Sorry for my bad English, I'm Norwegian.

    Just wait a few hours, if it's not updated from that, then change your nameservers, but for now leave it. Just keep checking on it from time too time.

    If you clear your cache you might find the changes have already taken effect.

    NOTE: Did not read comments



    Make a account on cloudflare

    Add your ip and connect the domain to it

    Easy way is to find some DNS hosting service.. for this example use cloudflare - Home | CloudFlare | The web performance & security company

    When you have finished signing up you will be able to choose "DNS Settings":
    http://gyazo.com/4ff8e330475594a943b3e70dcd499823

    Set it up so it looks like this:

    Then click the green "im done entering my dns records"

    Wait for a few hours = done.

    Make the DNS an A (ADDRESS) for WWW and put it as your VPS IP. It can take upto 48 hours to take effect.

    Well you're not going to get a fix unless you explain your problem...
