OT: What is the best DNS for wildcard subdomains?

Rails
1

I am having issues with netfirms in that in the past and right now
certain subdomains result in a failure to direct the request to my
servers.

I need to find somewhere that is reliable and that can handle wildcard
subdomains.

Any suggestions?

I’ve never run my own dns, or compiled bind - but I can say that
easydns.com is a joy to use; wildcards et all.

You should probably diagnose the actual problem so that you don’t waste
a lot of time migrating a broken configuration only to have it remain
broken.

Thanks for the advice Jodi. I signed up and was able to get everything
working. Hopefully I never see this problem again.

BTW, when I signed up I added your name to the referral slot, so
hopefully you get something out of this.

Thanks again.

The first time netfirms admitted to the problem being on their side so
the root of the problem has been removed :slight_smile:
