Machines not seeing externally hosted domain

Hi all,
I have a sub-domain set up as my public access to my server -server.myname.com. However, I also have the domain myname.com as a website which is externally hosted. My problem is that although I have told the DNS server where to go for the subdomain at the host, whenever I try and go to the main domain via my machines on my network, I get nothing.
I know I probably have to input my main domain's DNS as a query, but not too sure how!
Any ideas?

Really what is a subdomain and what is a hostname?
I think this is true:
hostname.domainame.tld = FQDN
or with a subdomain:
hostname.subdomain.domainame.tld = FQDN
(OK I know you sometimes use only the domainname.tld as the FQDN
For example: http://iis.se/ and http://www.iis.se/ direct you to the same webpage.)
To separate a subdomain from a domainname and what DNS is responsible for the subdomain you need to "delegate" the DNS info for the subdomain to another DNS. Otherwise the main DNS is responsible for the main domainname.tld and all subdomains.
So depending what you have used as your domainname.tld your internal DNS might be responsible for all internal lookups for your domainname.tld and wont go to any public IP DNS to resolve any FQDN containing your domainname.tld.
You either use another domainname.tld or add all public IP names and IPs to your internal DNS so it can resolve any name containing your domainname.tld you want to lookup.

  • MBA mid-2012 does not see external display on wakeup

    My mid-2012 MBA does not see external displays on wakeup. VERY annoying
    I have a BenQ 24" HD display connected by HDMI and it is not seen by the Air on wakeup. I have to open the laptop, pull the mini-DV plug out 3 or 4 times before the display is recognised - some of the time. Most of the time requires a reboot with multiple cable/plug inserts.
    What an absolute POS this mid-2012 MBA is! Apple finally fixed the garbage colours on external displays in 10.8.4 but the issue of recognisisng external displays remains. Its a crock. Totally regret buyiing this POS.
    Have reset PRAM, SMS, cleared prefs etc etc ad nauseum. No solution with any of them. After almost a year of this garbage, the laptop is close to being thrown out as e-waste.

  • Time Machine not recognizing external hard disk

    I am trying to set up backups via Time Machine on my external hard drive but as I go through the process the my hard drive is not recognized in the dropdown menu. It the external hard drive is recognized in the Finder but not by Time Machine. What gives?

    do you know how the disk is formatted? it may be in a format that time machine does not support, but which the finder can see. just like this guy:

    No, sorry. Time Machine does not back up to network drives, except Time Capsules or a drive on another Mac on the network that's running Leopard. It will back-up to a USB drive connected to an Airport Extreme, but even that is, technically, unsupported, and requires a running a Terminal command to make it work.
    Here's the official word: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1733
    You may find some "hacks" that might make it work, in some cases, to a degree. But use them at your own risk.
    First, since this is *unsupported by Apple,* there's nowhere to go when there's trouble.
    Second, you're risking a future update preventing it from working, and perhaps rendering your backups useless.

  • Bridge CS4 Does Not See External Drive

    Very suddenly, Bridge is not seeing the external USB connected driver I use to store recent photos. I read a similar message here and the writer was told to add the drive to favorites. That appeared to work for him, but I could not do that since the folder doesn't appear under Computer in the favorites section either. The drive appears in Windows Explorer. I am using Vista 32. Any suggestions?
    Fran

    Did you power up or connect the external drive after Bridge had been started? I've observed that Bridge only includes drives that were attached and active when Bridge was launched; it does not add a drive to its folders list if that drive is started after Bridge is active. With your external drive on (and appearing in explorer) try exiting and relauching Bridge.

  • Can't connect to DFS shares from machines not part of the domain

    I'm not sure if this is by design, but we can't connect to DFS shares from machines that are not joined to the domain.  We can't even map a drive using credentials of a domain account.
    Is that how DFS is supposed to work? 

    Hi RJO22,
    I did some research on this topic, and got a conclusion:
    Clients that belong to a workgroup can only access the DFS namespace if the name resolution mechanism that is in place can locally resolve the domain name

  • Capture mode does not see external camera

    When I use the capture in iMovie, it only allows you to choose the built in iSight camera, and the external web cam is long listed as a choice. The external works fine in other programs (like skype).
    Is iMovie intentionally crippled to only work with iSight in capture mode? Or am I doing something wrong?
    THanks
    bob

    Thanks for your help...
    It is a Logitech Quickcam Pro 9000 using drivers from mac.
    It does show up in USB section under apple system profiler.
    It is connected through a powered hub (I have tried it directly connected with no difference).
    It is recognized fine in other programs, such as Skype (you can change from isight to external web cam).
    I downloaded and installed iGlasses 2, but that did not solve the problem. Curiously, if memory serves me correctly, photobooth only works with isight internal, but after iGlasses 2 install, it works (only) with external (when external is available).
    Any other ideas on why iMovie does not see the external web cam?

  • Time Machine not see my External HD anymore.

    I reset my ABES and now time machine doesn't see my external hard drive.  Not sure what I did wrong.  Can someone please guide me in the right direction or help me find it again.
    Thanks
    Julie

    Suggest the following steps:
    Power down the entire network....all devices....power down order is not important
    Wait a minute
    Start the modem first and let it run a minute by itself
    Start the next device connected to the modem the same way
    Continue starting devices one at a time the same way until everything is powered back up
    Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock)
    Open Time Machine
    Make sure that it is "ON"
    Click Select Disk
    Click on the hard drive to highlight it
    Click Use for Backup
    Keep an eye on things for the next 10-15 minutes to see if Time Machine backups get going again

  • Server App not seeing external LDAP users & groups

    I have a clean 10.8.2 + Server install set up with our standard external LDAP directory (Novell's eDirectory in our case) configuration that is known to support Lion & Mountain Lion client LDAP authentication. With this same configuration on OS X 10.8.2 Server both Directory Utility and WGM can see all the LDAP users and groups as expected.
    When I look for the external users & groups in the LDAP domain under the Server App "Accounts" heading I cannot see any entries in either users or groups lists. Should I be able to or is this a Server App quirk?
    I can add individual LDAP users to a local group and enable access to individual services. How can I give access to services to all LDAP users without having to build & maintain a massive "All LDAP Users" local group?
    Is there a published list of required LDAP attributes for users & groups for Mountain Lion Server? I suspect there are new requirements over and above those for 10.6 server but I have failed to find a good reference. I've noticed I get different behaviours for LDAP templates that includes a mapping for GeneratedUID to one which does not for example.
    This is all so much more opaque than our superbly reliable Snow Leopard servers!
    TIA

    Ok, and again:
    You want to see Users and Groups , which are stored in an third Party directory service like OpenLDAP, in your Server.app? This is what you have to do:
    Connect the third party ldap to your server
    Have all your external LDAP entries made so you can see them in the Workgroup Manager and are able to Login with them
    When you see your LDAP-entry in the Directory Manager, change it from "From Server" to "RFC2307"
    Edit the entry, add the following mapping to it:GeneratedUUID maps to apple-generateduuid
    To your group and user entries in the external LDAP add the follwing attribute:apple-generateduuid gets the value taken from the output of "uuidgen"
    Feel lucky
    And there ist ist; now you are able to use The accounts taken from an external LDAP.

  • Macbook Air not seeing external harddrive

    I have a Seagate external drive I use to back up both my Mac desktop and Macbook air laptop. It's usually plugged into the desktop since that's non-mobile, but I unplug it and plug it into the laptop about once a month. It still works on the desktop just fine, the desktop recognizes it and is backing up to it as normal. But this most recent time I plugged the harddrive into my laptop, the laptop doesn't see it at all. Time Machine says it'll backup "when disk is plugged in", it's not showing up in the side of Finder, and it's not showing up in Disk Utility. I tried rebooting the laptop, nothing. I haven't updated the OS to Mavericks yet, though I just did on the desktop and it continues to read the external drive no problem.

    Hi vberardo,
    If you are having an issue with your external hard drive now connecting to your MacBook Air, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Time machine not recognising external disk on airport extreme

    Hi
    I have connected a LaCie d2 Quadra disk to the usb port on my airport extreme.
    The disk is formatted as HFS+
    If I look in Finder (with Bonjour computers enabled as displayed) I can see the external disk through the airport extreme.  I can enter the disk and see the drive (it is connected), but I cannot add files to the disk.
    If I open Time Machine setup, I cannot see any external disk at all.
    If I look in Airport utility, I can see the d2 Quadra listed as an external disk on the extreme, and I have set it up for File Sharing (using the device password)
    Can anyone advise why Time Machine (OS-X Yosemite 10.10.1 on iMac) cannot see it?
    And what to do to get it connected please to allow backups from any mac user's machine?
    Thanks
    Andy

    So, LaCie advised to connect direct to Mac to check all ok.  It was.
    As soon as the HD was plugged in directly, TM recognised it and asked if I want to use it for backup. In Finder, the d2 Quadra appears, I can open it, and transfer files directly to and from it.
    For reference, the Airport Extreme is connected via Ethernet to the iMac I am using (so no WiFi in this particular chain of connectivity), and the Extreme firmware is the latest (7.6.4) for the model (802.11n)
    The issue is that connecting to the USB port on the Extreme, I cannot get the HD to operate like this!
    LaCie now state that they cannot help further!!!
    Does anyone have any idea why the Extreme is not sharing the HD as it is meant to?
    Thanks
    Andy

  • My time capsule does not see external hard drive

    I just got a new time capsule and am hoping to use it as a wireless bridge and NAS. 
    I've got it set up as a bridge and that seems to be working correctly, but when I plug my external hard drive into the time capsule, I can't see that external drive show up anywhere.
    Has anybody else run into this issue?
    The hard drive is a WD Elements 3 TB USB 2.0 Desktop External Hard Drive - WDBAAU0030HBK-NESN.

    I can't see that external drive show up anywhere.
    If the drive is formatted correctly and communicating with the Time Capsule, then it will be displayed when you open AirPort Utility, click on the Time Capsule icon, click Edit, and then click the Disks tab at the top of the next window. Example:
    Remember that since this drive is a "network" drive, it will not be displayed on the desktop until you manually mount the drive.
