Hi,
I'm trying to put the finishing touches on our new name servers, but I've
run into a small problem. I'm trying to get the domain
bswift.com(www.bswift.com works correctly, just bswift.com doesn't) to
point to cluster.bswift.com without using the IP address. We have a lot of
domains, and we are in the process of changing ISP's so I'd like to be able
to just change the address of cluster.bswift.com and not have to edit all
domain files. My problem is that the I'tried;
IN CNAME cluster.bswift.com
(after the cluster.bswift.com record) and get an error and many other ways,
but the only way I can get this to work is with what I have below, with;
bswift.com IN CNAME cluster.bswift.com.
But I get bswift.com.bswift.com, is this an error I can live with??? Or is
there a better way of doing this?....
> bswift.com
Server: phc-40.chi.platinumhealth.com
Address: 209.119.45.40
Name: cluster.bswift.com
Address: 209.119.45.57
Aliases: bswift.com.bswift.com
Any suggestions??? Thanks....
