I'm not really sure what they are asking as typically I create my own A and MX records, however what I am assuming is that they want me to create a CNAME that points from my domain sever to theirs. It is basically an MX record for a web site I host for them. All email must go through their server. I would love to just create an A record that would point at their IP address but 1) I don't know how many IP addresses they are using and 2) I never know when they will change the IP address so creating a CNAME pointing at the A record makes sense to me I just don't know how to do it with WEBMIN. Make sense? ~V From: Maxwell Smart [mailto:cj...@yo...] Sent: Thursday, January 28, 2010 5:45 PM To: Webmin users list Subject: Re: [webmin-l] Semi-urgent DNS Help Needed You may be slightly confusing in your question. You will need to add the name autodiscover IN CNAME newdomain.com. but its unrelated to the current domain autodiscover.mydomina.com On 01/28/2010 02:36 PM, Vernon wrote: I don't know it's what they have requested.

Wouldn't you just put a separate A record in each domain pointing to the same IP?

Subject: [webmin-l] Semi-urgent DNS Help Needed I am being asked to create a CNAME pointing from autodiscover.mydomina.com to autodiscover.newdomain.com I am assuming in webmin you go to the Name Alias Link under the appropriate zone enter autodiscover under Name and under Real Name add: autodiscover.newdomain.com. Which then looks like: Name TTL Real Name autodiscover.mydomain.com. Default autodiscover.newdomain.com. Is that correct?
