Hi Guys,

I just applied for a CNAME with the ISP who currently hosts my website. I did the CNAME as follows:

www.lmusicofphoto.com in CNAME for www.smugmug.com

My ISP displayed it as www.lmusicofphoto.com lmusicofphoto.com in CNAME for www.smugmug.com

I think this is correct, can anyone here confirm this for me?

Thank you.

Sincerely

Navy Moose

    Should be. The only way to know for sure is to test it.

    I tested www.lmusicofphoto.com but it appears they haven't updated DNS yet as I'm seeing what I guess is your old non-smugmug website.

    Dns...
    I worked as a SysAdmin for an ISP and DNS changes can take from 24 to 48hrs to make it through all the DNS servers. I checked a few of my DNS search sites and I don't think they've sent it out to the DNS servers.
