Many thanks for the free service on OpenShift.
I am using Gandi for my domain - www.something.io
(₁), something.io
(₂). I am trying to achieve the following: Have domains ₁ and ₂, redirect to nodejs-something.rhcloud.com
without having the rhcloud domain in the address bar. I am aware of masked forward but wouldn't that display the rhcloud domain name? Why is forwarding the naked name so problematic?
The below works fine for www.something.io
only:
something.io 3600 IN CNAME nodejs-something.rhcloud.com.
www 3600 IN CNAME nodejs-something.rhcloud.com.
www.something.io 3600 IN CNAME nodejs-something.rhcloud.com.
something.io
displays:
Apache/2.2.15 (Red Hat) Server at nodejs-something.rhcloud.com Port 80
after I setup forwarding in Gandi from *.something.io
to www.something.io
. It wouldn't even take me to something.io
if I didn't, that is, it ignored my rule in the zone file above.
I really wish this was a bit more simple.
I am very new to this so I would appreciate any help.
