Gandi Simple Hosting: Cant change Cname

You should be logged in to post new messages. Create an account.

Hi,

I just purchased Simple Hosting and trying to point domains that are managed
on another site to my instance here.

I tried to add the Cnam value for WWW but it wont accept it with the
period(.)  Per the Wiki..."Do not forget to add the dot at the end of the
line! "

But it wont let me add the period, it says it is invalid.

Any ideas?

Try it without the dot at the end -- the dot is very important if you're
editing the raw DNS zone file. However, many DNS providers assume the
trailing dot and don't require that you add it. Try it either way and see
what works.
