Subdomian configuration not working

Hi,

I know I am doing something wrong. But I simply cannot figure it out.

Here’s my DNS zone file:

$TTL 1800 @ IN SOA NS1.DIGITALOCEAN.COM. hostmaster.balajisivaraman.com. ( 1382809691 ; last update: 2013-10-26 17:48:11 UTC 3600 ; refresh 900 ; retry 1209600 ; expire 1800 ; ttl ) IN NS NS1.DIGITALOCEAN.COM. NS NS2.DIGITALOCEAN.COM. NS NS3.DIGITALOCEAN.COM. @ IN A 146.185.152.131

• CNAME @

Here’s my NGINX sites file:

server { listen 80;

    root /usr/share/nginx/www/blog.balajisivaraman.com;
    index index.html index.htm;

    # Make site accessible from http://localhost/
    server_name balajisivaraman.com *.balajisivaraman.com;

}

Notice that I’ve mapped all subdomains to the same thing. That is because I cannot get individual subdomains working.

When I try to resolve balajisivaraman.com, here’s what I get:

balajisivaraman.com. 619 IN A 146.185.152.131

All is well and good. But when I try to resolve one of the subdomains, here’s the result.

www.balajisivaraman.com@8.8.4.4 (Default):

balajisivaraman.com. 619 IN SOA NS1.DIGITALOCEAN.com. hostmaster.balajisivaraman.com. 1382451000 3600 900 1209600 1800

Notice that it isn’t getting resolved back to the A record properly.

Any ideas on what I have to change?
