Re: [cobalt-users] Simple Question...pointing .net to .com

No, the GUI method did not come out until the RAQ4.  The RAQ3 must be done
manual unless you have your sites set up as 1 site per 1 IP.

If they are set up as 1 site per 1 IP you can simply set up the A records to
point to the IP address.  If there are no sites set up other than for the
alias domain it will default to the only actual site for that IP.

However, if you are doing 1 site per 1 IP I suggest you change this
practice.  If your colo starts cracking down on IPs due to ARIN policy
changes you will be in one bad situation!  ARIN no longer allows 1 IP per 1
Site as justification of IP allocation.  You need to be using something such
as SSL in order to justify multiple IPs or have a lot of sites already
allocated to 1 IP.
