I registered a domain name — how can I point it to my DynDNS host?
Add a cname record to the DNS record for your domain, pointing from www.example.com
to example.dyndns-home.com
. I've only ever used one domain registrar (not Godaddy), but they have a neat web interface where you can update the DNS record.
Raw example:
www.example.com.
43200
IN
CNAME
example.dyndns-home.com.
Working example is provided, at least using Google's nameservers.
Edit (twice):
If you wanted http://example.com
to work too, you must add a second entry from example.com
to example.dyndns-home.com
. This might be done by forwarding @.example.com
, I don't know if that's standard or not.
