Daniel0 Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Have you talked to your host about it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ober Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 DNS changes can take up to 3 days to take effect. Cool your jets and just sit back for a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviewdr Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 I suggest going to http://www.dnsstuff.com/ and testing your dns settings with that. The caching ober mentioned is only for servers who have already queried your domain. If you try testing your domain name using other dns lookup tools etc. it will show a current result. If you let us know the dns name etc. or if you pm it to me - I will do a nslookup and dig on it.Also - just to note:"www.website.com" is NOT technically the same website as "website.com" They are 2 seperate DNS entries required. Generally in most control panels you have to add the "www" as a new sub-domain name for it to work.-steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steviewdr Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 [quote]I don't think you have to with cPanel.[/quote]I cant comment on cPanel - but you have to add www.somedomain.com as a subdomain to somedomain.com in bind9 (dns daemon). So presumably - if you are correct - cPanel would add both entries seamlessly.Anyhoo.-steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
