Search Again: Re: how to implement wildcards? From: Donovan Watts Date: Thursday, February 10, 2000 Time: 8:43:00 am Chris, to be sure, can I have an A record vs. a CNAME record like: *.websurfhawaii.com. A frontier.websurfhawaii.com. ------- What about it didn't work? This is exactly what should work. You might even want to give them email, such as "user@yoursitename.websurfhawaii.com". In this case, you'd want more wildcard records: *.websurfhawaii.com. CNAME frontier.websurfhawaii.com. *.websurfhawaii.com. MX 10 mail.websurfhawaii.com. *.websurfhawaii.com. MX 15 mail2.websurfhawaii.com. *.websurfhawaii.com. MX 20 ns1.lava.net. *.websurfhawaii.com. MX 30 lists.websurfhawaii.com. Just be aware that this won't work for any name that already has any other record. ____________________________________________________________________ Chris Buxton cbuxton@menandmice.com Men & Mice http://www.menandmice.com Makers of: QuickDNS Pro
