[UPHPU] tracking domain calls

[Chad Sollis]

Does linode act exclusively as a vps, or does it have name servers as  
well?

If linode does have name servers, then your domain needs to be  
configured to route *.domain.com to your vps IP Address from their  
name servers.

If linode does not have name servers you can do one of two things,

1) use godaddy name servers, and then use total dns control in godaddy  
to point to your vps IP address.

2) setup an account with everydns.net (or similar), change your  
godaddy name server settings to NS1.EVERYDNS.NET(or similar) and then  
from everydns.net route your domain to the vps IP address.
