hi
I own a domain name, let’s call it domain.com
I want to map two subdomains of it to two DigitalOcean droplets (let’s say with IP’s 1.1.1.1 and 2.2.2.2), as in:
sub1.domain.com -> 1.1.1.1 sub2.domain.com -> 2.2.2.2
I’ve tried creating two ‘A’ records: sub1 1.1.1.1 sub2 2.2.2.2
but it has not worked. pinging sub1.domain.com and sub2.domain.com hits the same IP 1.1.1.1
any help appreciated
cheers
Francisco
