Log:
- geigenhof.ch entries with www.geigenhof as cname to geigenhof.ch. didn't work: switch complained that lookup doesn't succeed at ns?.everydns.net.
- geigenhof.ch entries as above - suddendly disapeared in everydns.net page??
- geigenhof.ch entries entered again in everydns.net (as above) - tried few hours later @switch => ok! change nameserver entries @switch to ns1.everydns.net and ns2.everydns.net.
- tried 'dig geigenhof.ch' => still shows mydyndns entries, probably stays like this for half a day.
- 24h later, 'dig geigenhof.ch' does not answer anything - maybe ok until new nameservers propagated all over. However, dnsreport.com says 'OK'.
- mails not delivered to geigenhof.ch. Maybe have to specify MX record with vs168224.vserver.de?
- mails delivered from GMS, but not netcetera. maybe due to old DNS entries @netcetera => dig doesn't work either.
- added zumluchs.ch entries at everydns.
- changed stefanrufer.ch dns entries to everydns.net
- changed zumluchs.ch dns entries to everydns.net
- added jacquat.ch dns entries at everydns.net
- deactivated zumluchs dyndns entries
TODO:
- configure Apache/tomcat instead of url rewrite
- complete DNS-Setup for jacquat.ch: Nameserver bei Switch eintragen und Domain aktivieren.
