CNAME to external server

Hy.

I'm interested in create a CNAME dns record for a www subdomanin to external site like this:

Code:

dig www.pcrednet.com

; <<>> DiG 9.7.0-P1 <<>> www.pcrednet.com
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 24078
;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 2, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0

;; QUESTION SECTION:
;www.pcrednet.com.		IN	A
pd:
;; ANSWER SECTION:
[B]www.pcrednet.com.	13680	IN	CNAME	pcrednet.no-ip.org.
pcrednet.no-ip.org.	16	IN	A	82.158.76.244[/B]

;; WHEN: Sun Oct 31 21:36:24 2010
;; MSG SIZE  rcvd: 82

pd: sorry for my english.Thx.

 

I have configured it like you havel told me:



and outupu of dig www.cblasan.net:

Code:

dig www.cblasan.net

; <<>> DiG 9.7.0-P1 <<>> www.cblasan.net
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NXDOMAIN, id: 11470
;; flags: qr aa rd; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 1, ADDITIONAL: 0
;; WARNING: recursion requested but not available

;; QUESTION SECTION:

;; ANSWER SECTION:
[/B]www.cblasan.net.	86400	IN	CNAME	www.cblasan.com.cblasan.net.[/B]

;; AUTHORITY SECTION:
cblasan.net.		86400	IN	SOA	ns1.pcrednet.net. info.pcrednet.com. 2010110101 28800 7200 604800 86400

;; Query time: 67 msec

;; WHEN: Mon Nov  1 10:19:05 2010

And not works.

 

I need that

www.cblasan.net Cname to www.cblasan.com

cblasan.com and cblasan.net are two different servers.

 

You've forgotten a dot. Now you have:

Code:

CNAME www www.cblasan.com

but it must be

Code:

CNAME www www.cblasan.com[B][COLOR="Red"].[/COLOR][/B]

 

Thank you so much Falko. Works now:

Code:

 dig www.domain.net

; <<>> DiG 9.7.0-P1 <<>> www.domain.net
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 28057

www.domain.com.	14370	IN	A	93.93.116.45

;; Query time: 63 msec

As this is often an issue and maybe not known to many,

a FQDN always ends with a dot (.). Eventhough e.g. a Webbrowser does not really care about, from the resolver's point of view, in any case an DNS-Name does NOT end with a dot (.), it is not terminated and thus possible / allowed to attach any known suffic for lookup....
