How to create a CNAME Record for the root domain?
Hello.
My question is how to create a CNAME Record for the root domain “example.com”.
I’ve already looked at this tutorial here: https://www.digitalocean.com/docs/networking/dns/how-to/manage-records/
They wrote that I should use the “@” sign. Unfortunately when I try the “@” sign in the Hostname field I get the error: “Invalid Hostname”.
I wanna create the following alias:
example.com
is an alias of foo.whatever.com
Thanks for the help !
