Re: [cobalt-users] DNS Questions



This brings up a (slightly off-topic) question I have had. I played around
with my Raq3i trying to make "mail.domain.com" and "smtp.domain.com" work. I
finally got it to work by setting up A records with these names. I see that
you have CNAME records for yours. Not being a DNS wizard, I'm not sure I
know the difference. Could you explain why you chose CNAME instead of A
records? I want to do it right and I'm not sure I am at this point.

TIA
