Wildcard sub-domain

Posted February 28, 2014

I currently have an app that uses sub-domains to identify the accounts, but currently when I create an account I also create an A host to link it to the server.

My question is: If I create a wildcard subdomain I still can create A hosts to point them to another hosts? or are the current ones that I have will continue to work?

You can create both a wildcard record and separate A records but it will act as a round-robin DNS setup (<a href=“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-robin_DNS”>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-robin_DNS</a>) which I don’t think is something you want.
