| I am a bit of a noob when it comes to this type of things. I have a Minecraft server hosted with another host I want to know if I could add something in my Linodes DNS manager so that when I go to game.example.com it takes me to my offsite minecraft box. Is this even possible? Thanks in advance. |

Absolutely, just put the offsite server's IP in with that DNS name in an A record. |
