Still having problems with zone editer.
Hi guys, I set my domain bluefoxtt.com I went to my domain manager on here and I clicked "add a domain" I followed steps to add my bluefoxtt.com domain. I then went to godaddy and set my dns to sn1 and ns2.linode.com If I ping bluefoxtt.com I can see the same IP address as if I ping linode.com but I can't get it to point to my linode server…

Hi there,
Since this is a public forum, I can't get into any of your account specifics (for your privacy) but I can address what you've given us here and provide you with some good resources that should be helpful to you.
First, I want to point you to our documentation on our name servers. Make sure the five name servers set up precisely how you see them in this guide:
When setting up your DNS through our Manager, I always recommend going through our DNS Checklist to make sure that you don't miss anything. I'll point you to it here:
Keep in mind that it could take up to a day (24 hours) for your DNS changes to take effect.

I did some further digging into this and I have some more information for you.
I was able to ping your domain:
ping bluefoxtt.com
--- bluefoxtt.com ping statistics ---
5 packets transmitted, 5 packets received, 0.0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 59.076/64.216/76.590/6.543 ms
A dig revealed that the domain resolves to this IP address:
dig +short bluefoxtt.com
45.79.38.95
When I cURL your domain, and also when I attempt to resolve it in my browser, I get a 403 Forbidden response:
curl -IL bluefoxtt.com
HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden
Date: Wed, 04 Dec 2019 21:10:40 GMT
Server: Apache/2.4.25
Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1
I don't know if that's something that's a concern right now, but I felt it was worth mentioning. If you'd like further information on the 403 and how to troubleshoot it, we have another Community Site post which delves into that (written with WordPress in mind, but the same principle should apply here) :
