[okfn-help] Pointing publicdomainreview.org/.net to publicdomainreview.okfn.org?

Mon Jun 27 08:34:37 UTC 2011

Hello everyone!

We need to do this in the next 24-28 hours as we're distributing
flyers this week with the new domain name on it - but this is not yet
set up (and it needs time to propagate, etc).

Nils: Rufus is tied up - so do you think you could help me with the final steps?

So far I have:

  * Changed name server on Accuwebhosting (to ns1.everydns.net, etc.)
  * Set up a record for publicdomainreview.org on http://www.everydns.com/

But I need help with

  * What (exactly) do I put in which boxes on everydns.com? I think
Rufus mentioned cache.okfn.org, but I've not done this as I'm not sure
if we do CNAME or not, and/or whether this is for
publicdomainreview.org, www.publicdomainreview.org,
*.publicdomainreview.org, etc.
  * Making sure that publicdomainreview.org gets pointed to the
correct WP instance (publicdomainreview.okfn.org) which I presume is
this: http://trac.okfn.org/wiki/WordpressService

What do you think? Would you be willing to don your heroic sysadmin
spurs and help a poor community coordinator in distress? ;-)
