    Ah, bummer. Slightly put wrong and you called me out rightly.

    My tld to be provided on a root. I was in the wrong mindset. Apologies!

      I wasn’t meaning for it to be calling out so much as attempted humorous way of misunderstanding / literally interpreting your post 😅

      I’m still not fully sure what you mean though. Does “root” mean VPS here (a system which you have root access to), and “tld” a domain name or even the DNS server for it?

        Ah, no worries! It’s purely about DNS!

        If you own a DNS zone you need to have that hosted somewhere in a datacenter.

        So say you own example.com you need to have a server (but usually a more redundant setup) that is queried for everything regarding that: which ip(s) is www.example.com, where does the mail go, some other settings (time to live), all subdomains, text records (various purposes).
