Hello everyone,
I am currently building a testing environment in Office 365/Azure to get a feel for Domain Services and how it can help our business. I currently have it setup with a <companyname>.onmicrosoft.
com domain name. I am trying to configure LDAPS, and it requires me to create a DNS record with the external DNS provider so that the DNS name of the managed domain points to the external IP address that gets created during setup. (using steps listed here, under Task 5:
Configure LDAPS)
My issue is that I am not using an external DNS provider, just what MS is providing. Is there something that I am doing wrong, or will I need to get ahold of an external DNS provider like NetSol?
If you are using contoso.onmicrosoft.com, no dns entry is required, in fact you can't do it because you don't have control on that dns zone
If you are using custom domain, you would get custom dns zone for custom domain (public domain) where you can create required Host(A) record
I don't think this is your case
Further more, this step is optional and applicable only if you are accessing resources from managed domain over internet using LDAPS
