A member purchased a domain for our boards, but I'm not entirely sure how to set it up. If I'm reading THIS doc correctly, then he will need to do the following: 1) Edit the CNAME record to point to http://s13.zetaboards.com/6StarWrestling/index/ 2) Point the A record to server 13's IP (209.85.122.84). Once that is done, I can go into the Admin CP and set the new domain as the primary, correct? |

You're almost correct, however make sure your CNAME record is pointing to s13.zetaboards.com only (You don't want anything else there). ![]() Jonathan |

Ok, we've go the CNET and A Records set as above and have the new domain set as the primary address. But if you type the address out, it doesn't work. It takes a day or two for the domain to work completely, yes? |

Usually less than that, but it can vary. What domain are you trying to use with your board? |

6starwrestling.net It is working fine for me now, though.
