Connect to Custom VPS

If you are hosting your own server (DigitalOcean, AWS, Linode, etc.), you can use an A record to point your domain to your server's IP address.

Configuring the A Record

Go to your ARC.BD Dashboard, select your domain, and add an A record:

Type: A
Target: 198.51.100.1 (Replace with your server IPv4 address)

Server Configuration (Nginx Example)

Make sure your web server is configured to listen for your new domain name.

server { listen 80; server_name myproject.arc.bd; location / { proxy_pass http://localhost:3000; } }
