MobileMe cname entry

Post by gusa6666 »

Hi!
Mobileme offers webspace. To use it I have to set a CNAME record "www" to web.me.com.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html ... 17114.html

The Problem is that I can only set an http://www.domain.tld CNAME record.

How can I solve this?

Thank You

I'm not quite sure exactly what the problem you're trying to solve. You will need to set www.domain.tld with CNAME web.me.com to use MobileMe.

Thank you for the answer.
I didi this before but didn't work.

Do I have to point the A record also to the IP of web.me.com?

I had an A record pointing to http://www.domain.tld to - removed it now - but don't know if this helps or was wrong.

A CNAME record must stand alone. If you have an A record for www.* it must be removed.
