Hi folks,
I’ve got my primary domain setup with an A record like so:
A @ 12.34.56.78
And I’d like to add some subdomains, which I’ve tried to do like so:
CNAME www @
CNAME docs @
The assumption I’m working with is that since the ‘@’ is setup as an A record, I should be able to use it as the target of a CNAME record?
However, it’s not working. Any help is greatly appreciated.
