Some providers require you to put a full-stop at the end of the domain name, like:<br />
<br />
domain1.com<br />
@ &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;A &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;1.1.1.1<br />
www &nbsp; &nbsp;A &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 1.1.1.1<br />
<br />
domain2.com<br />
@ &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;CNAME &nbsp; &nbsp; <a href="http://www.domain1.com" rel="ugc">www.domain1.com</a>.<br />
www &nbsp; &nbsp;CNAME &nbsp; &nbsp; <a href="http://www.domain1.com" rel="ugc">www.domain1.com</a>.<br />
<br />
Information about this should be on the page. 123-REG does this and if it's missing, it wont work.

I have a domain name that I am trying to point to a server that does not have a header for that domain. &nbsp;I believe you can do this through the cname, but cannot seem to figure it out. &nbsp;Can someone tell me how to do this? &nbsp;Currently I am sitting like this:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
A Record<br />
@ - pointed towards the ip address of the server I want the domain to resolve to<br />
www - pointed towards the ip address of the server I want the domain to resolve to<br />
<br />
CNAME<br />
Host: *<br />
Canonical Name: &nbsp;the domain name of the site I want my domain to resolve to (recognized by the server because of existing header)<br />
<br />
Should be simple... Is this the right approach?<br />
