Hey guys, my server's doing wierd things. Actually, I think it's dns related. I just switched to using my domain name provider's dns service just to avoid this issue, but something is not right.
When I visit itmustbetrue.com, it should give my webserver's congratulations page (or a 404 if the server is off), but on my computer, it gives some spammy page regardless of the webserver's status.
I did a dns lookup, and this spammy ip was listed 67.228.179.250. I did a flushdns and my normal IP came back, 68.68.97.239. When I browse to http://68.68.97.239 everything works as it should.
When I do a dns lookup, my domain provider's dns servers are used for the lookup and they return the correct IPs.
WTF is going on?
[edit] Ok, I think I might have misconfigured my cname records at my provider, and instead of them being a good business and returning no valid IP, they return their spammy ip. What I actually did was configure the CNAME records to point to my main domain name (itmustbetrue.com.) which I think is valid but I'd have to look into it.
Well, I just used the IP now and now dns lookup seems to be returning the correct ip, though ping on my computer still fails with the wrong ip, but I have a feeling it's just cached at my ISP. If anyone can ping minecraft.itmustbetrue.com and tell me what IP it returns that would be helpful
Thanks!
