My forum got converted yesterday. Do I need to update my domain A and CNAME records in my providers account?

Right now your domain, and your old IF default domain, will redirect traffic to your new ZB default domain. In order to use your custom domain with the ZB board, you will need to update the CNAME and A records. For a list of IP addresses see this link - http://docs.zetaboards.com/domains/serverips

It doesn't work. This is the error message that I get:

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.


I tried deleting cookies/cache.

Try removing the bottom A-record. I don't believe it's necessary.

I've left it in.

I just gave it another try today and it works. It must need time to replicate on their servers or something.
