| Why can't I map a cname to an ns or mx record? I saw a site that instructs on how to add cnames and it says: "Caution: Do not use a CNAME alias record for a name-based domain, or an NS or MX record." However, it does not explain why. Also, I've been looking to find out why it put that caution up there, but I haven't found anything that will explain it. Anyone have any idea's, or opinions???? | |
