Custom domain name pointing issues

Hi
I've set my custom domain name for my webpages and it is working fine - www.domain.com points to my iweb site. But how can i make sure that domain.com (without the www.) also points to my iweb site? I know I could change settings on my domain registrar (godaddy) and create an A record but it requires an IP address to point to...
Any ideas?

But how can i make sure that domain.com (without the www.) also points to my iweb site?
Please read the 3rd bullet on the godaddy instructions
http://help.godaddy.com/topic/163/article/4100
I know I could change settings on my domain registrar (godaddy) and create an A record but it requires an IP address to point to...
If you want to do it that way, you use the IP for web.me.com You can find this at any of the countless websites which let you look up IP's.

  • Custom Domain name for Azure virtual machine using azure websites

    Hie, I am using a cloud service (e.g cloud1) and it has a hosted VM in it (Windows server 2012). It is having a URL cloud1.cloudapp.net. So I want to use the domain name (e.g azuresite1.azurewebsites.net)created from azure.
      So how do I add the Cname record and everything in this setup .
      I already tried to use
    this but that didn't work
     What additional steps are required to add custom domain name to an azure virtual machine and, the custom domain name is also an azure website

    If you want to use azuresite1.zurewebsites.net then i think, you have to create a azurewebsite. If you have a custom domain then following should work.
    You have findout the IP that is attached to the VM. 
    Point your domain name to that IP (using domain dashboard)
    Now your domain points to whatever the site hosted on the VM (port 80)
    If you have more sites then, you have specify HostName for the site which you want to use with domain name.
    Try and let me know if this helped.

  • Help! Azure VM Web Server and Custom Domain Names

    I am going to be pretty basic here, so I apologize at the start ;)....We are attempting to setup a web server for our customer applications in Azure. We need to setup the website with multiple subdomains i.e. ourcompany.com is the main site but we will have
    customer1.outcompany.com, customer2.ourcompany.com, etc.... 
    I have a domain name registered with GoDaddy. I have a virtual machine up and running. I have a test website up and running and can access it externally ( the net ) so I do have endpoints figured out at minimum. 
    Example. the current virtual server is ourcompany01.cloudapp.net . Our registered domain name is ourcompany.com.
    Using our domain registrar,I am able to point ourcompany.com to ourcompany01.cloudapp.net.
    The problem is that I want our customers to see ourcompany.com not ourcompany01.cloudapp.net in the browser. 
    How do I make that happen and also allow for the subddomains?
    Any help would be greatly apprciated as I am under the proverbial gun to make this happen!!!!

    Hello ShapopoJoe
    You are right about making changes in your DNS Registrar. That is the last step that is suggested in the article:
    http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/cloud-services-custom-domain-name/
    And about createing the sub domains, you will need to use the IP address. Since you would be creating more than one subdomains for your 'www.ourcompany.com', you will need to map them to Reserve IP address.
    You can refer to this link for creating more Reserve IP address:

  • Deploying Azure Web Site and Custom Domain Name

    I'm new to Azure and not at all familiar with the various methods of publishing to Azure via Git, etc. I belong to the old school of plain old IIS folder structures and uploading HTML files to Inetpub directory for deploying web contents.
    I have created an Azure web site at
    http://mysite.azurewebsites.net and have added a CNAME record on our DNS server to redirect traffic from www.mydomain.com to mysite.azurewebsites.net but to no avail. I have downloaded and installed the Azure
    PowerShell but can't seem to do anything with it. Any advice on how to configure the custom domain name for my azure web site as well as how to deploy contents to it, preferrably the old school way, would be much appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Azure web site support several development stacks, such as .net, node.js, php, python, and different stack has different deploy process, see more at:
    http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/documentation/services/web-sites/
    refer to
    http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/documentation/articles/web-sites-custom-domain-name/ for more information about how to configure the custom domain.

  • Web Sharing with custom domain name

    Hi,
    I am wondering if I can use a custom domain name with the built in web sharing. Instead of it going to http://10.0.0.2/ it will be http://www.mydomain.com/. Thanks in advance.
    Ryan

    I have GoDaddy hosted domain name which I have setup to forward all web traffic to my ISP provided web page (eg http://my.webpage.ISP.com/account-name).
    There is nothing magical about that URL. So I do not see any reason why you can not use your DynDNS.org name.

  • Azure AD user name not using configured custom domain name

    I have configured a few users for Lync Online that I setup before I had custom domain name work with Azure AD.  Now I have the custom domain setup and verified and configured as the primary domain.  The users that were configured for Lync
    Online are still displayed with the *.onmicrosoft.com username in Azure AD.
    Is there a way I can change these users so their usernames use our custom domain?

    You can easily change the UPN via PowerShell:
    Set-MsolUserPrincipalName -UserPrincipalName [email protected] -NewUserPrincipalName [email protected]
    If you want to do this in bulk for all users, you can use something like this:
    $all = Get-MsolUser -All
    $users = $all | ? {$_.UserPrincipalName -match "tenant.onmicrosoft.com"}
    $users | % {Set-MsolUserPrincipalName -UserPrincipalName $_.UserPrincipalName -NewUserPrincipalName $_.UserPrincipalName.Replace("tenant.onmicrosoft.com","domain.com")}
    Test it first against a single user of course :)

  • New issue breaking Gmail when using custom domain name

    I have been using my own domain name in conjunction with Gmail since the launch of Gmail.  The use case is fairly straightforward -- I have my own domain name and have created an email address alias on this domain ("custom email address') that forwards email to my Gmail account.  I have configured Gmail to override the From field with this custom email address.  With this configuration, Gmail is happy.  
    On my Z10, I had created a Gmail email integration account via the Advanced Settings with my custom email address in the "email address" field and my gmail email address as the username with the appropriate gmail server settings.  When I continue from the advanced screen, I was taken to the Google account login screen where I grant permissions for my BlackBerry to access my account.  On this screen, I logged in using my gmail email address.  This worked fine and I received email without incident on my Z10 since I bought it on the Feb launch date ... until this past weekend.  My Z10 then suddenly reported that my settings had changed and nothing I could do could convince it to accept the above settings as correct.
    If you have a similar configuration and have noticed recent issues, there is a solution.  This new "issue" appears to be that when you log into the Google permissions screen during the BB10 email account configuration process (i.e. the Google login page after you enter all the server settings in Advanced section of BB email account setup), you are no longer allowed to enter a username that differs with the custom email address you are setting up.  It won't ever tell you that this is the problem.  You just get a vague email settings error at the end of the process and you can't get your mail.  It is possible that Google is the one who introduced this glitch, since the solution is within your Google account configuration, not BlackBerry.  Simply put, you must associate your custom email address with your gmail account login within Google.
    To do this, log in to Gmail using your usual gmail address.  Click on your Gmail address in the top right corner, select the "Account" link in the drop down.  Click the "Edit" link to the right of the Email heading.  At the bottom of this edit page add your custom email address in the field next to the label "Add a new alternate address".  After you add it, you will need to verify this address via an email that will be in your Gmail account.  I probably should have done this long ago, but never had the need to until now.
    Now you can get BB email working again.  Go back to the BB10 account settings page for your Gmail account.  This time when are kicked over to the Google login page to grant permissions to your BlackBerry to access your account, use your custom email address as your Google username and use your usual Gmail password.

    Amazing, Thanks !

  • MVC OWIN Application hosted in Azure fails with custom domain names

    I am not entirely sure if this is the proper forum for OneDrive API questions, but hoping this is close enough or can be redirected.
    I am working on integrating Microsoft Account authentication into my application, and in testing have based it off of the VS 2013 MVC starting template.  Everything works fine if I set my target domain and redirect url to be sitename.azurewebsites.net
    / sitename.azurewebsites.net/signin-Microsoft respectively. 
    However, this site has a custom domain associated with it, so I would like to actually point to use
    www.sitename.com /
    www.sitename.com/signin-Microsoft under my dev account settings for this application.  When I am in this configuration, I consistently get the following error:
    We're unable to complete your request
    Microsoft account is experiencing technical problems. Please try again later.
    Accessing www.sitename.com works fine.  How can I configure this to work with my actual domain name versus the azure name?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Rob,
    Can you contact me at [email protected] with the actual domain name that you are trying to register so that I can take a closer look?
    Thanks,

  • Domain name transfer issues

    I am having trouble with a domain name I purchased forward to my .mac. This is the second domain name I have purchased. The first one I had issues with too, but it works fine now when the name is typed in a browser window. I copied the exact info, but I am getting an error from .mac saying name doesn't exist. I published the site in iWeb just like I did my first site....every step was the same. I can not figure out why I am getting an error -- can anyone help?

    I fixed it. iWeb address changed from first site to second site, so copying address to forwarding URL was not enough. I had to make the necessary changes. Thank you for responding

  • How can I use a custom domain name?

    I noticed that when I try to publish my website, it prompts me to provide a domain name which will have ".businesscatalyst.com" tagged on the end. Is there a way to publish this site to a domain name I already own?

    After you publish to a free temporary BC site, you can either pay for the hosting on BC, or if you have a subscription to Muse or Creative Cloud you can redeem one of your included site hosting credits to push the site live, then you can assign your domain name to the site.

  • .Mac gallery in iweb site with custom domain name

    This is my first post on the boards and I want to say that switching from pc to mac has been one of the greatest moves of my life. Anyways Im a photographer and have my own domain name. Ive created a site in iweb with .mac photo galleries on it. To upload the site I used an external ftp loader. The site looks great but when I click on the galleries it takes me to the .mac gallery page and there is no link to get back to the home page.

    When you create the link to a .Mac gallery, check the box "Open link in new window" in the "link" inspector.

  • Custom domain name?

    I would like to have a MyName.com domain name for my web site. What is the best way to do this? I would prefer to have it appear that my web site is on the MyName.com address and not simply load the web.mac.com url. Is this possible? And can I do it in a way that I can move my web site to a different server someday that has my domain name without breaking people's links?

    You need to go to a place that sells domain names like godaddy.com and then have it forwarded to your .mac url. Do a search of the forum on "domain name" or godaddy and you should find tons of earlier messages on the topic.

  • With MobileMe Closed: How to forward iweb "web.me..." address to new FTP site and custom domain name?

    I had a mobile me "web.me.com..." domain name and know I need to upload to a new FTP site with a new domain.  I know how to do that but am wondering...
    Is there a way to forward my old web.me address to the new domain?  I'll probably be using GoDaddy's or 1&1 domain hosting. 
    There are many people who have my old web.me address and I won't be able to tell them the new address.  I don't want them to go away if they see the "mobile me closed" page and don't know where my new site is at.  I just want it to automatically forward.
    thanks

    Its too late to do that as the forward would need to be on the Apple server and its closed now.
    The best you can do is to sign up for hosting and get a domain name...

    Hi Linda, are you referring to the Domain Name showing in the Connectivity Tab of the Linksyssmartwifi utility? The Domain Name is automatically assigned by Comcast. This setting will depend on the type of internet connection that is set up for you by your ISP. Can you give me more details of your Internet connection set up? I'd like to see how it goes. Did Comcast provide you a new Domain Name?

  • Be aware when using a custom domain name

    Accessing your site on the iPhone by going to http://gallery.me.com/yourname here works fine.
    If you have a personal domain pointing to http://gallery.me.com/yournamehere - the site doesn't render on the iPhone correctly.
    I called tech support, Apple is aware. Bummer.

    Well, you set the From: address that will appear on the email in Preferences, Accounts, Account information. (You can even add multiple email addresses in the Email address line -- just separate them with commas. Then you can select which From: address to use.)
    Anyone who looks at the complete message will still be able to see where it came from, but the From: field will be what you intend.
