If you open your DNS console and expand Forward Lookup Zones do you see xcompany.com?<br />
<br />
And if you do, can you see an existing record called autodiscover?<br />

I have been asked to do the following from the company that is hosting our email exchage servers. <br />
<br />
To my understanding you are using Xcompany.com as your Active Directory domain. In this case, you will also need to update your internal DNS servers.<br />
<br />
All that’s required a change of a CNAME record.<br />
<br />
You will need to change:<br />
<br />
autodiscover CNAME autodiscover.emailhosting.<wbr />com.<br />
<br />
TO:<br />
<br />
autodiscover CNAME autordr.emailhosting.com.<br />
<br />
Please advise <br />

how to change the CNAME with DNS server

The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical, globally distributed system responsible for associating the name of a computer, service or other resource into an IP address for connecting to the Internet or a private network. Most prominently, it translates domain names to the numerical IP addresses needed for the purpose of computer services and devices worldwide.
