Search Again: TTL of CNAME? From: Thomas Wenzl Date: Friday, September 20, 2002 Time: 4:07:13 am Hi all, we are movig one of our webservers (host1.ourdomain.com ) to an other IP. So I decided to reduce the TTLs of the domains pointing to the server. The Question is now: Do I have to change all the TTLs of the CNAMES or is it enough to change the TTL of the corresponding A-Record to get a clean switch? All the virtual domains on the server have CNAMEs in their zones in the way of www.anydomain.com. CNAME host1.ourdomain.com. the CNAME ist resolved in its own zone with an A-Record in the way of host1.ourdomain.com A xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. Is it enough to reduce the TTL of the A-Record host1.ourdomain.com? Thanks, Tom -- mit freundlichen Gruessen Thomas Wenzl fuer Rueckfragen koennen Sie mich gerne anrufen. kon5 communications Dipl.
