Use A Record On Remote Dns To Point To Heliosite

[amurrell]

I have a domain blogginglolly.com, hosted on namecheap.com

 

Name Servers:
dns1.registrar-servers.com
dns2.registrar-servers.com

 

I am pointing blogginglolly.com to google app engine

 

I have an A record for alias admin ie (admin.blogginglolly.com) pointing to my IP on stevie 216.218.192.170

 

I am getting the account queued page even though blogginglolly.heliohost.org is working.

 

What can I do to get this to work? Do you need to add these nameservers on your end? How do I associate this domain with my webhosting on helio?
I tried doing it the other way of adding your name servers to my domain but then it was very difficult to control it to let google use it.

 

 

Thank you thank you thank you for this service and your help!

Much Appreciated!

We don't support joining domains using A or CNAME records. You'll need to use our nameservers unless you want to make admin.blogginglolly.com your main domain on your heliohost account. If you do this, your A record to 216.218.192.170 will be sufficient. Be aware that blogginglolly.heliohost.org will stop working and admin.blogginglolly.com will show the content that used to show blogginglolly.heliohost.org.

 

To change your main domain: http://www.heliohost.org/classic/support/scripts/domain Changes take about 48 hours (plus or minus a day) to start working after you submit them.

Thank you!

That domain change is exactly what I needed!

I will continue to leave my A record pointing to 216.218.192.170.

I only wanted admin.blogginglolly.com to work with my helio hosting.

 

So that solution is perfect.

 

Thank you again!
