Connecting a Linode Domain to a Domain on Route53 Hosted Zone
I bought a domain name on Route53 and I am trying to connect it to my Linode Server. I have created a domain on linode but I am unable to add the linode name servers to an A record on Route53 because they support just IP. How do I go about this? Thanks
I have tried this(https://docs.aws.amazon.com/Route53/latest/DeveloperGuide/white-label-name-servers.html#white-label-name-servers-update-ns-soa-records) but it doesn't seem to work

In order host your domain with Linode, you have change the authoritative name server's to Linode's. This guide titled Adding or changing name servers and glue records for a domain has instructions for this process.
Once you've done this and waited a bit for the changes to fully propagate, you can then follow the Linode Documentation for Adding A records through the DNS Manager.
