nightflash is correct. ‘www’ pointing to ‘mysite.com.’ is the right way to do it in Digital Ocean’s DNS settings. Don’t forget the ‘.’ at the end of your domain.
About how long does it take for this to propagate? I still only see the default apache page at www.mysite.com whereas mysite.com has been fine. Do I need to restart the server?
Sorry to re-open this thread…
I need to redirect: mail.mydomain.com to other URL google.com/mail
I’m using Ngix, how can I do this? May I do this in DNS or in nginx config?
Cheers.
