FireFox not resolving "A" record properly. Needs a dot after URL

[Flujee]

Hello

My name is Flujee Im a DA user and I have a problem...
hehe

Let me start off by giving you guys the scenario. I have a customer who wants a subdomain to point to my hosting ip ( shared server BTW). So he's created an "A" record pointing to the later.

Ive entered his subdomain with the proper hosting package in DA. Now the problem is when I try and view his subdomain through firefox ( http://subdom.dom.tld/ ) , it leads to to this message.

"This IP is being shared among many domains.
To view the domain you are looking for, simply enter the domain name in the location bar of your web browser."

Yet if I add a period to the end of the URL ( http://subdom.dom.tld./ ) it shows up just fine.

Why is it that it works fine in IE yet not firefox? And how can I get rid of the pesky firefox dot!


Thank you!

Flujee

Can you provide the actual subdomain for futher evalutation? How did you setup the A record? In DirectAdmin, at the registar...

Everything in order now

Hello

Everything seems to be working in order now.

Like the infamous broken radio problem, if you leave it alone for long enough it just might fix itself...

Thank you for taking the to read the post.

If anyone has any Idea as to why firefox would behave in such a way please feel free to educate me on the matter. Cause I have no Idea what happened.
