ShawnR | I use zoneedit, but they no longer do free accounts and I need to add another. Their practices seem a tad shady for if your "credits" run out (and reports of no notifications until it has ran out), but it is $1/mo, so $12/yr and dyn.com is $30/yr | 02:16 |
zoopster | ShawnR: google dns is free | 02:42 |
ShawnR | zoopster: not for my home computer to resolve addresses, but for the internet to resolve to my hosted website, they do that as well? | 02:47 |
zoopster | ShawnR: ah...you need to host an authoritative name server? | 02:50 |
zoopster | ShawnR: your domain registrar won't do that? | 02:51 |
ShawnR | i can't recall specifics, but the host i'm using does like zero DNS and i had to handle that all outside of them, and for whatever reason, godaddy didn't allow complete control | 02:56 |
ShawnR | no nameservers on my hosted site | 02:56 |
ShawnR | godaddy either wants to host your site themselves, or will only fwd/park or you use your own nameserver (NORMALLY kept at the host) | 02:58 |
zoopster | ah...ok | 02:58 |
zoopster | I use dotster and could use their dns management for 10/yr per domain | 02:59 |
zoopster | but I use my own dns | 02:59 |
ShawnR | yeah, i have webhosting for free (collegue at previous employment provided free to all ppl he worked with) | 03:00 |
ShawnR | but they have no DNS management there, so i used zoneedit... which was fine.... till now since they charge $ | 03:00 |
zoopster | bummer | 03:00 |
ShawnR | i just paid for 12 credits (1 yr) for $!2... and now it looks like if i ever change the name records, each update is an additional 1 ($1) credit to publish the update | 03:01 |
ShawnR | but i need to get it up and running, now i have ~12 months to find a better solution | 03:01 |
