Joyent does not provide DNS services for Accelerators outside of the single A record abcdefg.joyent.us as shown in your welcome email. If you want a reverse record (you want your accelerator IP address to have a record that points to your domain name instead of your accelerator zone name), you need to submit a ticket. For other DNS services, you will need to use your registrar's name servers or a third party DNS provider.
To point your domain name to your Joyent Accelerator, you will need to set up an A record that points to the IP address listed in your welcome email for your Accelerator. Your registrar should have help pages available with this information. Here are some links to the help pages from some common registrars:
Third party DNS providers include:
- EveryDNS.net (free)
