Domain pointer

[BuGoFf]

Hi,

I'm have some clients who add multiple domain pointers, i noticed that the dns records are not imported from the main domain.

Is there a solution to fix this?

Kr,

Hello,

But should they?

You might want to add a wildcard A record to DNS zone for every pointer of your clients.

Setup the dns with a wildcard A record. Go to Dns Control, and add an "A" record:
* -> 1.2.3.4
where 1.2.3.4 is the IP of your domain.
This will allow anything.domain.com to resolve to your server.

I would prefer it that way, because what if you have a server with 10 domain pointers, most clients register lots of tld's, and the client moves from his own mailserver to google. I (and i think you to) don't want to change the mx records for all this sites.

You add the domain as a "domain pointer" and it behaves as an alias for the main domain, even the mail behaves like this, so why doesn't the dns do this?

In my opinon it should inherit the records from the main domain.

Then you might need to post a feature request in a proper sub-forum. Otherwise you're on your own, and I can only suggest using a POST/PRE scripts, which can be written by you or anybody else you'd like to ask.
