Hello,
My sub domains no longer work. When I try to get a wildcard CNAME (* @), after saving i get (* mydomain.com.)
I want simply to get something like
@ IN A 1.2.3.4
- CNAME @
I don’t no why digitalOcean control-panel ignores my request
i get something like
mydomain.com. 1800 IN A 1.2.3.4 *.mydomain.com. 1800 IN CNAME mydomain.com.
The result is that all my sub-domain point to mydomain.com
My subdomains work as aliases to the main domain.
This is obviously not what I want!
My droplet is on nyc3. Is there a problem on this data center ?
I deleted and re-created the A and CNAME RECORD
A @ 1.2.3.4 CNAME * @.
But the problem persists!

* CNAME @ means that anything.domain.com points to domain.com, which is exactly what *.mydomain.com. 1800 IN CNAME mydomain.com. does. Can you describe what you’re trying to accomplish if that’s not what you want?
