Need help in setting up CNAME & A records for Google Apps
Hi all, I need some help with the following *Scenario :* Domain registered without a "convential" website hosting package. The aim is to fully integrate all google Apps (sites, mail, calendar, docs, codereview ) etc onto the domain. *Problem : *All sub domains defined (e.g mail.<domain.TLD> ) are not being resolved to the Google Apps..however http://www.google.com/a/<domain.tld> works fine Zone configuration appears to be correct apart from missing A record entries (see attached zone.txt) , which I am not sure, if they are required at this point. Any suggestions/ help would be appreciated Kind regards Kiti Chigiri
your cname dns entries don't have a trailing DOT - ie ghs.google.com => ghs.google.com. cheers, T 2009/12/18 Kiti Chigiri <kiti.chigiri@gmail.com>:

You'd have to change the CNAME records from the control panel that the host provides. What host does the domain use? On Sat, Dec 19, 2009 at 11:34 PM, Tony White <tony.mzungu@gmail.com> wrote:

As Tony White says, just append a trailing dot to ghs.google.com, increment the serial and reload the zone. -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ "If you have nothing good to say about someone, just shut up!." -- Lucky Dube
