Title: Kalyhost, how to get dns working??? Post by: Nefario on April 15, 2011, 04:39:45 AM I've bought some domain names using kalyhost, however I've never configured dns before(using IP addresses all the time) and I'm a little lost as to what to do. There isn't any help on the kalyhost site.
So I create a new zone, and then from what I know I need to create a new a record right? See screenshot https://i.imgur.com/bS2A9.jpg So if I want bitcoin-global.com to go to 109.75.176.245 what would fill into the fields in the below screenshot, I've already tried to have a dev.bitcoin-global.com but it's not resolving. For host I put dev.bitcoin-global.com and ip the address 109.75.176.245, is that right? I mean the http server is up an running at that ip. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong? https://i.imgur.com/sTqtA.jpg Title: Re: Kalyhost, how to get dns working??? Post by: trentzb on April 15, 2011, 04:50:26 AM I don't know how Kalyhost works but usually you would just want the hostname (dev) in your A record not the FQDN. And if your domain registration is pointing to ns1.xta.net/ns2 and propagated (several hours) you should be able to resolve dev.bitcoin-global.com from a looking glass nslookup.

dev.bitcoin-global.com.bitcoin-global.com. 600 IN A 109.75.176.245 Title: Re: Kalyhost, how to get dns working??? Post by: Nefario on April 15, 2011, 05:09:03 AM Yep, that's what you want to do. Your live DNS record as seen from here looks like: AHAHAHAHAha that resolves.dev.bitcoin-global.com.bitcoin-global.com. 600 IN A 109.75.176.245 Great, thats perfect, I knew it was something small like that.
